- VP Executive Sedan
I recently installed a towbar & trailer wiring to my VP exec sedan.
The wiring was a factory Holden(?) harness bought from a wrecker & was previously installed into my VN Exec sedan.
The loom is a plugin between the connection on the rgiht hand side taillights.
When I plugged in my car trailer on the weekend, it started to blow the fuse.
It is a 10A as per the factory rating.
Once it had a 15A fuse in there, it all seems ok.
The car trailer has 4 brake lights & I've also repalced the taillight looms with the aftermarket type that has 4 brake/taillight globes as my original looms were corroded.
It is just that having 5 brake lights on the car (including the high mount) & 4 on the trailer was too much for the 10A fuse?
I don't like the idea of doing a dodgy fuse replacement to hide a problem.
