Determine what caused it to blow, fix the fault that caused it to blow, replace the fuse.
Sometimes people replace the fuse first, but fuses rarely blow for no reason, and replacing the fuse without rectifying the fault can lead to additional damage.
If the fuse is labelled F it is fast-blow or T OR S it is slow-blow, the letter should be on the metal cap on the ends of the fuse.
Any piece of machinery that is designed to use a fast blow fuse should only use a fast blow fuse. For safety reasons this could save your life instead of taking it.
no A FRN fuse is a slow blow fuse where an non is a fast blow fuse. In a pinch a slow blow fuse can be use in a fast blow circuit but not the other way around.
Blow My Fuse was created on 1988-09-19.
It should be a 1.25 amp (1250ma) "slow-blow" fuse.
I had this problem with my car (the day after I bought it). There is a special fuse that they need to install in the fuse box that won't blow. The dealer should do it for you for free if you take it to them. In the meantime, you can change the fuse with the same amperage one that is there and they should work for a short time until they blow again. It gets to be a pain. If you change the fuse for a higher amperage fuse, the motor in the door lock will blow on one side.
5 Amps. If the current passing through the fuse exceeds 5 Amps is should "blow".
There is an oversized or malfunctioning fuse in the fuse box. The fuse should blow before the wire is damaged.
The time it takes for a fuse to blow, either "fast blow" or "slow blow" is determined by the design of the fuse and is described in a table or graph provided by the manufacturer. In general, the higher the applied overload current, the faster the fuse will blow. Fast blow fuses can open in milliseconds, slow blow fuses can open in several seconds. The fuse used depends entirely on the application and what kind of circuit it is protecting.
What would cause your fuse to blow when you turn on your lights on your 1993 mazda 323 the fuse to the tail lights on dash lights blow?
No, if a fuse were to overheat it would blow. A shorted circuit can cause a fuse to blow. Yes. If the fuse for the electric cooling fan should blow, then the fan will not turn on and remove heat from the radiator at low speeds. At higher speeds, there will be enough air movement to cool the radiator. Also if your experiencing problems with your car overheating you should look into other causes, such as making sure your anti freeze reservoir is full
When a fuse blows, you should replace the fuse and check to see what might have caused it to blow. It's a sign that there might be something causing too much current to flow in the circuit.
