cpat_39 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Recently replaced all marker lights with Bargman #59 LED lights. Total of 12 lights. Yesterday the 20 Amp fuse for the markers blew. My research says the LED bulbs are about 10-15% lower voltage than the older incandescents. Other than wiring issues that I still need to explore any thoughts on why fuse would fail?

Pat C It has to be a wiring issue because 12 replacement 12 volt LEDs use 85-90% fewer amps than the 12 12V incandescents they replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would look at each marker lights wiring and connectors. Make sure that nothing got pinched or damaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
