Q:How can I tell if the fuse is blown?

For sure please call Sanyo service center to help you (don't wait until the set blow the worst case it can set fire. Buzzing sound usually comes from the component that has coil in it, like flyback, transformer. But it usually comes from the flyback when its leaking. If this the safety fuse you're talking about, when it blows your set won't be able to turn on anymore.

Q:I want to add a circuit to my car to hardwire my gps and radar, and to run my rally lights.I have 10 gauge leads with a 30a fuse. I have 3 spst switches to run each. I have the appropraite fuses for each component.so to get to the point, i need to know how, if possible, to wire them in series so the voltage going to each is the same. This is my first time messing wiith electronics, and do i need to add any relays or capacitors?Thanks,Ben

the voltages in a series circuit are not the same the current is. you need a parleel circuit

Q:Any help greatly appreciated. So I drive a 2005 Chrysler 300. 3.5l v6. I have strange headlight and tail light issues. Mind you there are what I believe aftermarket LED halo style headlights in the front. Tail lights are from 300c hemiFirst of all my #8 fuse [15 amp] is repeatedly blowing for no appearant reason. A Working fuse gives me the fancy blue halos, orange lamps, 3 small LED's and my normal beams. As well as proper running tail lights for the back and a responsive light switch to turn them off and on. . When the fuse blows I'm left with no lights other than my normal beams up front. No tail lights. Yet when the fuse IS blown I press the break and all my tail lights come on [all reds, and yellow blinker lights both constant. Yellow lights don't blink] and a glitchy light switch. NOW aside from all of that. My bottom left fog light does not work. The bulb looks un damaged. Any help greatly appreciated

Hi i would be surprised if anything worked the Body module that other computer which works with the engine management system is confused now.

Q:I have a honda civic 99 2 door and I did that trick to find shortage on wires and I found I have a shortage on the interior light fuse. how can I find that wire to check it out? thank You and God Bless all of you

Start by checking the easiest items firstthe interior light wires and the door switches and after that since you don't have a wire diagram drop the fuse box and located and trace the wires that are going to that fuse. Don't forget to disconnect the battery first.

Q:I bought a 2003 1.4 Renault Megane for my first car and ended up doing 70 through a huge puddle and ruined my fuse box. I got a new fuse box from a 2004 1.6 Renault megane and put it in my car, but now the car feels like its not getting enough power to the engine, the electronic windows dont work as smoothly and also the window wipers wont go off. What is wrong with my car ?

would be a defective starter/ solinoid. If it became the alternator, the motor vehicle might initiate the warning lighting fixtures may well be on the sprint all the time and the 1st signes may well be as your utilizing alongside the radio wouold fade out, then the motor vehicle might decrease out and no capability in any respectthen you certainly wait and the battery might get better, and the motor vehicle might restart. yet might only run for a shorter distance. each nighttime you will possibly would desire to recharge the battery and interior the morning the motor vehicle might initiate first time every time. So i think of adjusting the alt became a waist of pennies. perhaps in case you may upload if the motor vehicle actuatly turns over once you place the substantial in and attempt to initiate it. or if each thing is ineffective?, whilst the engine wont initiate- does the radio paintings advantageous?. If it became a gasoline pump i might think of it would turn over and slutter to existence with what's interior the carb/injection gadget

Q:I recently started using a component cable to hook up my slim Playstation 2 to the TV and noticed that if I clicked the pull cord to change the setting on the ceiling fan the picture on the TV would go black for a split second.This does not happen with a regular AV cable.What would cause this?

What you describe is unusual, but not unheard of. It's called EMI (ElectroMagnetic Interference), or alternatively, depending on the frequency involved, RFI (Radio Frequency Interference). First, if your ceiling fan had a short circuit, it would blow the fuse or circuit breaker (if not, you do have real trouble), but, regardless, it would not operate. So your fan does NOT have a short circuit, and you are not about to burn down your house - relax. See here for all the interesting details about the sorts of things, man-made and natural, that can cause weird things to happen with electricity:

Q:99 jetta was working fine till one day it didnt startit didnt crank or many any sounds when i go to start it i also noticed before i did this that my key remote was not locking or unlocking my doors, also the controls on the door to lock and unlcock didnt work either everything lights up headlights , radio. but it wont start,, i had it jumped and nothing happend. mechanic tested the battery and said the battery is fine. and he doesnt know wat happend.any help ?

Problem is somewhere between your battery and the main fuse panel. Either one of main fuses blew or some wire fell of the panel terminal. Being that the battery has power, the headlights and radio work; this means that power is making it to your panel itself. But from the panel to SOME of the main components, it's not. So problem is in the fuse panel. Check your car manual for multiple panels. Sometimes the larger fuses and relays are in one panel, and the other accessory fuses are in another panel. Your problem would definitely be one of the bigger fuses, as the starter alone is usually on a 30amp.

Q:I have a power supply that reads 12 volts on the output but when I connect two 12V fans the voltage drops to about 4.5V. What electronic component do I need to replace? Is it a bad capacitor or transistor? Let me know if you need more information.

A diagram of the circuit would give the most information and allow for the best solution. Baring that, a general discussion may help but only a little. 1) All power supplies and circuits have impedance or resistance that is internal. There are no perfect wires, transformers, etc. This means that when you check the open circuit voltage (the voltage when there is no load attached to the power supply) it will read the highest voltage available. Normally when you connect a load, the power supply delivers a current to that load. The current flowing in the circuit will cause a voltage drop along the wires, transformers, coils, capacitors, etc. that causes the voltage at the load to be less than the supply voltage. (I am ignoring the effects of capacitors on a three phase power line here). This may be a small amount of voltage drop or a large amount depending on the size of your power supply and the amount of load current that must be supplied to the load. 2) The power supply must have the necessary capacity to drive the load. For instance you would not be able to use a 10 watt power supply and connect 100 watts of load to it. Based on the above, is the power supply big enough to drive the fans? Did it supply them previously without a problem? If the answer is yes, then there is a problem with the supply that needs to be repaired. The type of supply will make suggesting a repair solution very hard without the diagram or schematic. Look for a partially open circuit or poor connection first. Then look for a failed component. This will depend on the component (fuse, capacitor, transistor, IC, etc.). Wish this could have been better but I just do not have enough information. Hope this helps, Newton1Law What make model refrigerator do you have?

Q:ABS dash board lights comes on. break pedal funny feeling. Took it to the garage and all the did is take out the fuse and told me not to worry about it. And everyone that I've talked to says the same thing. I drive around with my son in this truck. What is ABS and why don't people want to fix it the right way. I don't mind spending the money. I also mantian my truck to what the book says.

abs stands for anti-lock brake system. you have a falte code regerested in your abs control computer. it could be something as simple as a wheel speed sensor that broke a wire, you need to put the fuse back in and take it to a garage that is willing to pull the falt code, repair the problem,and reset the computer. your truck was born with abs, with the lite on and the fuse out ,you don't have it. this is a safety feature to keep the brakes from locking up and you loseing control of your truck i would have it fixed

Q:I have a variac transformer rated at 7.5 amps but the fuse burned out. I want to increase the rating to 20 amps, can I do this by replacing the fuse with a 20 amp fuse?

Unfortunately not. If the current rating of a supply is 7.5amps, that's the max your gonna get. Putting a 20amp fuse in it will just possible cause the supply to burn up or possibly cause a fire. I definitely would not do this. If you were in a pinch and just want to test the supply, possibly you could, but again I wouldn't. Sorry
