Fuse for 25a roof outlet (light bar outlet)

[AnD3rew]

Anyone know which fuse this is? I can’t identify it from the little fuse chart that was tucked into the manual.

Bump? Anyone???

Most of this information is in the Fuses thread here. That image is the relevant one. It is a 25 Amp Mini fuse.

There is no fuse diagram for that fuse box, to my knowledge, only a picture which was annotated by Jean Mercier.

EDIT: some more information is now available.

Hi Doc if the rated current for the light bar circuit iii 25 A isn't that fuse a slightly higher rating i.e 30A?????

I believe the INEOS LED Lightbar is below 25 amps, so they probably think it is OK.

@TheDocAUS @DCPU @Jean Mercier where is this fuse box? Is it hidden under the plastic cover in the battery compartment?

Sits next to the starter battery.. perhaps Jean's finger and who has cut an access.. maybe dcpu's...? both owners boldly going where no man has gone before.... and who did we say designed this part again?

Excellent thank you.

Thanks all, it’s done now. Whatever moron who designed those stupid plastic covers in the battery compartment should be tarred and feathered and run out of town never to work in the industry again. And the idiot who thought it was necessary to put locktite on the massively oversized and dumbly located torx bolts needs a slap upside the head. What should be a 2 minute job turns into a frustrating sweary 45 minutes.

It seems they definitely didn't want owners meddling down there.
But we have tin snips and we know how to use them.

Meddling is one thing, doing basic field maintenance and repairs like changing a fuse is entirely another.

I no longer use Loctite. I torque the bolt/screw after adding Marine Goop. It holds the bolt/screw in place, the seal remains flexible (unlike Loctite) and it is easy to break the seal if needed later.

Having a two seater lets me avoid the plastic cover dramas. I took a quick look yesterday at the batteries when I visited the dealer. Only a few more sleeps.

There is a time and place for loctite, that isn’t it.

Yes, my finger and my car and trims
I did cut both trims in the middle, as well this trim as the other one, therefore I can easily access all fuses! (after removing some screws of course).
