DC Circuit Breaker Size Question?
We have a 2010 Outback 230RS. The battery cable connects to TWO little gadgets which appear to be circuit breakers. One connects to the tow vehicle umbilical cord, the other to a wire running to the converter. The breaker in the wire to the converter has died.
Note these breakers are located on the frame, right near the battery. I'm not talking about breakers or fuses inside the converter.
Anybody know what size breaker is used on the frame between the battery and the converter?
Anybody see any reason to not replace it with a circuit breaker from an automobile, assuming I can find the right size?
Silly thing seems to have failed over the winter. It isn't a short somewhere, as the voltage is fine to the converter UNTIL I turn on something. Even a light will cause the breaker to open. Glad it failed here, not on the road.
