I have a 2x4 with the 12 volt accessory outlet on the dash. It goes to a 10amp fuse in the fuse block. I know because I blew it. I did not notice anything else that stopped working. Does anyone know for sure if that is the only thing on that particular circuit, and would there be any issues with upgrading the fuse?

Thanks!
Mike

If is was able to carry more than 10 A they likey would have done it. However there may be an engineering standard, company policy, insurance regulation or even a federal law that prohibits more than 10A. . ....

I was thinking that because it is the 12v acessory port that the 10a is there to protect any items plugged into it not necessarly that the line couldn't handle it. I gues time will tell :-)

Don't know that one but on one other, the accessory port had its own circuit. ....
