Fuse box installation on 4gen

I found information about this topic all over the place.
I wish there was one thread with all the info. So, here is my
experience in this install.

Blue Sea Fuse box 5025
cost: $39.99
30 amp relay $6.00

The box is a little big but it fits under the seat.
Velcro pad base in the pic.


12 gauge wire used to do wiring from battery to relay and relay to fuse box.
Tap into the rear lights for the switched power line to the relay.

This is the wiring diagram.


Wires added to fuse box...
red circle on the right indicates the wire I tapped into for the switched power line to the relay.


battery connections done...


Relay installed (see red circle) and wired per diagram above.


All done.

 

Thats a nice easy place for it! Good job!

 

Damn, how did i miss this? Where did you get the fuse box?

 

Go to a Marine supply shop, Bass Pro shop, etc. Wherever there is a place that sells supplies for boats. There are some smaller ones at auto stores too.
Measure it to make sure it will fit. I have seen the space under a 5th and 6th gen bike and it is tight in there.

 

I just added one of those 12v plugs.
Got it for under $3 at Advance auto parts.

 

Good job Frank

Now I called that a fine thread (Instruction):thumbsup:
