my heater wouldnt fire up this morning so i changed the 20amp fuse and it still didnt fire up(red light goes off after 30 seconds or so,if that).....i need to change this fuse holder i think as it has melted a bit inside and i think thats why my heaters not working......ive changed the fuse 3 times now in 2 and a half years and its always solved the problem....

i reset the heater by taking the fuse out while the controller and heater setting ON......then i turned off the controller,refitted the fuse and turned the controller back on.....the heater did actually start its cycle for 30 seconds or so then died on me(red light went out)......

where can i buy these fuse holders from?i guess ill have to disconnect my batteries from my system when i fit a new one...im convinced this is where my problem lies........

[deeege]

Sounds like a right faff......

[G Griffin]

I bet Gomo didn't have this problem today.

You’ll need to get one from Oliver it’ll be wired to the fuse holder from inside.

its a black plastic fuse holder with a cover on top..thats all i need...ill swap it out myself......ill have a look on ebay.....

[P @ F]

Got a pic of it ?

[P @ F]

This is mine , a 15 amp 17 months now and no issues 

[Simon Trapani]

Do you ever find out why the fuse blows Daz?

[P @ F]

Normally too much current draw  or the wire guage isn’t big enough .

Daz , have you had it serviced or any new parts since new , out of interest?

[Splash & dash]

Never had a problem with mine but I have a fuse board not one of those small things with covers on it I personally feel  they overheat in that tiny plastic box thing

[Dave Willis]

Probably not straight enough.

[NWH]

Yeah it’s wired in though Daz to inside the cabinet.

as long as i trace the wire and wire it up the same then it should be ok....ive ordered 2 from grippa...

[dazmond]

no......my heater has  worked fine for 2 and a half years day in/day out,not been serviced at all,no new parts(apart from a few 20amp fuses)

[david mark]

Halfords sell that fuse holder

[Dave Willis]

Almost sounds to me like the heater needs cleaning out/ de coking if it’s not blowing the fuse.
Prob looking at two hours of windowcleaners wages to service (£200 +).

[dazmond]

Heres the fuse holder! .....its goosed methinks....its connected up with bullet connectors so an easy swap....

If fitting a new fuse holder and fuse doesn't solve the problem I'll get it serviced.....

the fuse holder has bullet connectors on each side so its an easy swap nigel......

i hated using cold water today!more scrubbing and rinsing required and my hose was like wire even though it was warm/humid today
