Tonyrodz's Tahoe Build Thread

The fuse blew for the right hand pwr receptacle on the center console. It's happened before, where I just replaced the fuse, but for some reason I now can't find the location of that damned fuse! Can someone point out to me which one it is. Tia.

Does this help?

It would if I could read schematics lol. Thank you tho. I was super frustrated. Happened this morning around 6:20 and I have to be to work at 7. It messed up--guess it got too hot--running an air pump. I have a slow leak in a rear tire. Now I know why I couldn't find a blown fuse--the receptacle itself was bad.
I had a spare from my original setup. I don't even know what I spliced the pwr wire off of to run pwr to it lol. Thanks for your help @Snowbound

Well......putting air in that damn tire had the same result with the new receptacle. Blew this one out too. I officially give up!

But your belt is still on, right?

Air compressor pulling more amps than rated? You need one that clips to the battery! Or get you some small battery clamps off Amazon and replace that power port end on your compressor with them.

The fuse should blow before the power port gets hot enough (due to the excessive amperage) to melt itself. Did you replace the fuse for that circuit with a higher amp one? This is a common mistake people do when they keep blowing a fuse.

Unbelievably, yes. Now you just jinxed me!

Great idea.

Great idea.

Better idea, fix your damn tire or replace it. Discount tire will fix leaks free of charge. Just saying.

Really?

Unfortunately we don't have those around here. I know I gotta fix it. Lately, since I've gotten this job, I don't have much time for myself to do much.

EDIT: What the hell is free in NJ??
