Crass Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 If you just cut it out you leave that circuit completely unprotected from overload which could fry your loom. Much better to replace it with a 30A inline fuse which costs less than a pint of beer, retaining full protection but removing a source of unreliability. 1 Quote Link to comment

Put anything in the firing line of road shite and water and it'll fail - electrics moreso! It's an unnecessary complication that can be simplified with a fuse instead and easier to protect. They maybe not very expensive but when failed beside the road - that doesn't help! 1 Quote Link to comment
