[QUOTE="FordTechOne, post: 1568575, member: 35543"] To clarify, here are the Aux Fuse ratings and wire gauges: Aux 1 - 15 A Fuse - 16 gauge wire Aux 2 - 15 A Fuse - 16 gauge wire Aux 3 - 10A Fuse - 20 gauge wire Aux 4 - 10A Fuse - 20 gauge wire Aux 5 - 5A Fuse - 22 gauge wire Aux 6 - 5A Fuse - 22 gauge wire As a general rule in automotive electrical, the continuous load of a circuit should not exceed 80% of the fuse rating. If the lighting was drawing 4.89A through a 5A fuse, it's right at the maximum. Any high resistance at the connection between the factory aux circuit and aftermarket circuit could generate enough heat to melt the wire. [/QUOTE]
