[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 1337936, member: 3828"] My guess is that the amplirider is defective (partially shorted internally) and is drawing too much current. I can't see what the current draw is [I]supposed [/I]to be on those units, but being a simple audio amplifier / mixer, I doubt that it is very much. If adding your additional running or signal lights to the rear I would highly suggest that you use LEDs as they are much more efficient with electric power and shouldn't cause a fuse to blow (unless or until they fail). Just try to remember that you've added these to the circuit if there is a next time, because in the electrical and electronic troubleshooting world we always suspect the MRFWU (Most Recently [I]Fiddled[/I] With Unit) first.
