Fuses and lights
Hey folks, I had one of the spotlights go out on my light bar. I could not find a 12 volt 25 watt light bulb anywhere, so I went with the 12 volt 55 watt on both spots. Problem I had was when I had the spots on, and put the brake on, it would blow my 10amp fuse. I replaced the 10amp with a 15amp fuse, now no problem. My question is, do I run any risk of damage when I up to the 15 amp fuse? Thanks for the input.

i think you run a risk of over heating some wires or something, Benny. My brother lost 1 spot on his Cobra lightbar and he took out the filament and found it at a auto parts store, the 25 W one and works fine. the number on the Cobra spots is actually a Honda spot so might check Honda too. he found his in a mid-sized town not a big city so you should find it. Hope this helps.
