I recentley hooked up a fog light system in my truck. For the live wires I jammed the live into the 10amp radio fuse so they would go on and off when I started my truck. Now I took the wire out and the radio won't work the fuse is in there to loose. I don't know what to do if I hold the fuse up it works but if I drop it down it will shut off. Help!!

 

That's why you really have to use the correct method to tap into the fuse box. There are a number of products out there that allow you to tap in without hurting anything.

OK, so that bit of information is a bit late for you. Here's what you can do. The the fuse legs (the metal parts sticking out the bottom of the plastic part) and bend them - just slightly - in opposite directions. Although this doesn't fix the fact that you've opened up the female part in the fuse box, it usually does the trick.

 

thanks a bunch for the fast response man i'll have to try that this evening when I get off work. Yeah I know I should have done it right but I was in a hurry o well I guess lesson learned. Thanks
