I've got a freaking dilema.....:eek::eek: I needs a 1A fuse (automotive blade type, goes into the electrical panel, not the mini fuse one) for my fish finder. I've called every single automotive store in town, I even gave radio shack a shot. None of them have anything lower then 3A :mad:. If there are anybody out there have a spare one you can express mail it to me? I'll owes you BIG TIME! PLEASSEE.........:D

Try Radio Shack or other electronics store. These may be used for radios, more that auto applications. If that fails, use the 3A fuse.

Re: Helpppp!!!!!!!!

Actually a 3A would work ok. An internal problem that pops a 1A fuse means the head unit is very likely dead and the cost to repair makes repair impractical. The fuse is there to prevent burn down as the result of an equipment malfunction. After all, its an equipment malfunction that caused the fuse to pop in the first place.

Well the fuse is for a new installation, there are no problem with the head unit. This is my old unit that used to be at the console, I've never had one at the bow so now I'm putting it up front. I've ordered a whole bunch of them and they should be here today.
