Autruche Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 If you don't want to disconnect the battery when working on electrical in your car, at least remove all associated fuses first. Try replacing the fuse anyway and seeing if that helps. Sometimes a fuse doesn't pop, but it will be so close to popping that it won't allow all the power to flow through it.

Autruche Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Before you head over there try pulling a different one out of your fuse box to try in place of the radio/lighter fuse quick just to see.

Learned this the hard way.. melted a battery. Way to go me =) Sounds like a popped fuse to me. Quote New build coming soon.

Kranny Posted January 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 new fuse didnt work, which didnt surprise me since the phone charger still worked before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blownengine Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 There is still 12V at the fuse though? Sounds like you need to run a new wire then.
