7.5 amp fuse blowing

[fastalkintn]

I need help. The 7.5 amp control center fuse is blowing when I turn on the battery disconnect. I did discover that my battery was bad so I replaced it but nothing changed. I have looked under the bed for the infamous wire issues but everything looks ok. I’m going to try to make it through this trip before trying to find and fix the problem. My question is, will I be ok leaving the battery disconnect off?

If you leave the battery disconnect turned off, your battery will not charge. I'd leave the 7.5A fuse out and turn the battery disconnect on to keep battery charged.

I would check all the wires going in. Something is not wired right for it to blow a fuse.

Thanks to everyone for the responses. On a whim I tried it again last night and the fuse didn’t blow. Do you think a low voltage on the battery could have been causing it?

I absolutely think the low voltage caused the fuse to blow. When voltage goes low, the load draws more amperage trying to get to the same power level. The increase in amps will blow the fuse. You are probably okay now.

That’s what I was hoping, thanks for the response.
