Fuse confusion...
« on: August 01, 2021, 02:55:47 PM »
I went to renew the fuses for my headlight and tail light and then discover I have 7 amp Honda fuses but the box says use what I've already got .. 10 amp fuses. I can't think of anywhere else there are fuses on my CB400f2! DSS sells 15 Amp and 7 Amp genuine Honda fuses but not 10 amp. What might be gong on...a clanger?

7a is correct for the headlamp. 15a main fuse and 7a tail lamp. I'm sure at one stage I fitted a 10a fuse for the headlamp because I couldn't source any 7a glass fuses of the correct length at the time.

It sounds like the incorrect fuse box George 🤔

Yes. It is the aftermarket one on DSS, I noticed an image on here yesterday that must have come from the same place....same labels!
