hey, i keep blowing my fuse, and i think i now know why. i have an RE 12.1 and a jl audio 300/2 amp and the stock fuses they gave me are only 60 amps. The problem is they are the circular tube fuses, AGU i believe. Do i need to switch to an ANL holder and get a 150 amp fuse? Will that stop me blowing all of my fuses? What other things could cause it? |

Are you talking about the inline fuse by the battery then? If so, then your fuse rating will depend on your wire size. What size is your power wire...4awg, 2awg? You can find your fuse rating at www.bcae1.com/fuses |

Use that link ^^^^^^ You CAN NOT install a fuse larger than what is specified for your wire. If your amp draws too much current for you wire, you have to run heavier gauge wire. |
