It is not likely; a fuse link is in series with the battery and will prevent current from flowing if it's bad, but will not itself run down the battery if the car or truck is off.

What it can do is prevent the battery from charging. The power from the voltage regulator that charges the battery also has to go through that fuse link; if the fuse link is bad, the battery may not charge fully.

What causes a 1993 buick lesabre not to start after replacing the starter?

My suggestion is to make sure that you have a good connection between your starter and your battery. Is the starter even functioning? If not, it is probably a bad starter, a bad battery, a bad fusible link for the starter, a blown fuse, or just a bad connection.

Disconnect the battery cables for safety, then Use a pair of needle nose pliers and remove any left over pieces, then relace the fuse with the correct rating. Of course, disconnect the battery cable first, but make certain that the fuse is or is not bolted in on the sides as the 80 main fusible link, usually is.

How do you stop a fuse from blowing when you hook up the battery?

While hooking up a battery make sure to connect the positive cable first, then the ground. If you have been doing it that way and you have a fuse that keeps blowing you have a problem in the circuitry after the fuse. Some short in the wiring or problem with a device is causing the fuse to blow ( thankfully ) rather than destroy something else or completely drain your battery.


What are the materials you need to make a battery tester?

You can make two types of battery testers.The easy one is with a light-bulb.You need: 2 wires, a light bulb, a fuse, and a battery to test.If you attach the positive terminal of the bulb to the cathode of the battery, and the negative terminal of the bulb to a fuse and then the fuse to the anode of the battery, you may judge the battery's capacity based on the brightness of the bulb.(Note: If it does not work, replace the fuse or try without a fuse, the fuse is in case the bulb explodes, which rarely happens. Otherwise, you have a dead battery.)The hard way is the compass way.You need: a long wire, a compass, and a battery to test.Wrap the wire around the compass but leave the two ends open. Connect the two ends to the anode and cathode of your battery. Judge the battery capacity based on the speed of the spinning needle in the compass.(Note: if it doesn't work, wrap more wire around the battery compass, use a stronger wire, otherwise the battery is dead.)I, who improved it, am the same person who wrote the answer, I just realized that I wrote battery instead of compassafter I published my answer, so I improved it after I finished.
