4x4Lamm

I was topping of my spare with my compressor and it died, fuse was blown so I replaced it with another 15Amp blade fuse, it worked for about 5 seconds, then nothing again, only the fuse is intact.

Any Ideas?
Thanks,

Check the plug to the compressor Lamm...Seen those go bad 1000s of times.

Well I tried another acessory and it didn't work either, but thanks for the tip.

hmmm...maybe one of the wires was loose and caused the initial short...then gave out all together?

Good luck with it Lamm!

when mine did that it was the fusible link wire in the 12v adapter itself.

If so, you'll likely need to pull the center dash (pretty easy), and check the connection there... solder in some new link wire, or just some any-ole-wire (not my recommendation) and you should be good.

I have a reference somewhere... hmmm....

Happened to me using an air comp too on my '90 truck I use to have.
Cut out the link and attached the two wires.

No problemo...

Stupid link is not needed and causes more snafus than it is worth.
