Wondering if anyone can help with wiring of an LED emblem. It came with a fuse tap with a red fuse at the end (assuming 10amp) and in inline 5amp fuse. I need an acc 12v switched fuse. What fuse should I pull from the fuse box in the engine compartment? Am I correct in saying that I would need to pull a 10amp fuse since the end fuse on the tap is a 10amp? Does it matter what way I plug in the fuse tap? Any help would be greatly appreciated.



Fuse Tap

Red Fuse, can’t see rating but assuming red is 10amp.

5amp in-line fuse for emblem circuit

Vague instructions.

 

Looks like it might fail at some point, is that fuse removable ?

 

@Gerf I attempted to pull it using a decent amount of force without trying to damage it and it won’t come out.

 

So then if the fuse ever blows you have to cut the end off and instal a proper fuse with wiring attached, might as well just do that before installation.
I would try to return that and get something that's serviceable.
What's the emblem?

Good point. I guess if for some reason it Does blow I can just buy a proper fuse tap and splice it to the emblem. Thanks for the input.

 

Sorry I didn't look at the pic very close, the end is just a connection and only looks like a fuse...the actual fuse is part way down the red wire.
You need an ignition on power source for what they show as a fuse box connection, I don't know if you're going to have a spare in your fuse box but you might.

I would just tap into an ignition on power source that meets your needs with a 3 way butt connector because the power source will already be fused and there is one on your emblem harness as well. Good luck.

 

Gerf has given great advice. The item may be low quality Chinese made. Hope it goes well for you.

 

Thanks for the help, and I am sure it is cheaply made. I will see how it holds ups…

 

Installed today.

 

looks good
