IMPORTANT! It is the responsibility of the installing technician to determine the load factor of the vehicles
electrical circuits when the vehicle is running, and to adequately fuse the three power wires based on that
load. If the vehicle, running under load with the air conditioner, heater blower motor, and accessories exceed
24 Amps continuous, we recommend that two fuses be used in combination on each power wire as shown
below. For additional information see Tech Update issued 9/30/96.
