How would you change a fuse to a mini circuit breaker?

In: Car Electronics and Lights [Edit categories]

Answer:

I imagine you are talking about an actual fuse box, as opposed to a breaker box. These are different. One has circular fuses, the other has breakers, which generally look like switches.

If it is a fuse box, unscrew the circular fuse and replace it with a fuse of the same amperage. The amperage is noted somewhere on the top of the fuse facing you when you look at in the fuse box. It will either be 15A [A for Amps] or 20A if it is in a house.

If it is a breaker, and it is just tripped, turn it all the way off, and switch it back on. If the breaker is actually bad, use should call an electrician.
