NOTE
○
A mass current flows to the battery according to the
state of the battery which needs refreshing charge when
the engine is turned causing main fuse blown out.
CAUTION
When replacing a fuse, be sure the new fuse
matches the specified fuse rating for that circuit.
Installation of a fuse with a higher rating may cause
damage to wiring and components.
