Hi,

I'm planning to buy a "add a fuse" adapter with capability of holding 30A, but I went to every hardware and automotive stores, and the highest I saw was 20A. Will the 20A withstand it? I am planning to tap into my windshield wiper wire to power the fogs and the windshield wiper. Does anyone know if it is safe or even possible to use this 20A add a fuse? If someone know where I can find one that can withstand 30A please chime in. Thank you so much.

This is what I'm looking for, but with 30A capability:

Check at Radio Shack.

20A is the upper limit for them.
When you say you want to power your fogs, do you mean via a relay harness? If so, you don't need 20A, since the relay will only pull about 5A max for the signal.
The relay harness needs the 30A fuse at the battery.

So I want to power the Accord fogs by tapping into the windshield wiper fuse cabin which uses a 30A fuse. I'm looking to purchase this:



I will be using the fuse relay harness for the HIDs. One of the Acurazine member said I need to put the 30A fuse for the lower limit and a 5A fuse for the upper limit. Can you please tell me a correct way to wire this so that I can tapped into the windshield wiper for power and connect the HID fuse relay harness for the HIDs? Thanks

20A will do 240 to 280 watts. What are you needing that requires more than that?

Initially, I thought if I took out the 30A fuse from the windshield wiper fuse and put it in the bottom limit of the "add a fuse", I would then need the "add a fuse" to be capable of holding 30A. Is this right?

I'm still not sure how you will be wiring the fogs. Will you be using ANY of the OEM wires? I highly recommend you not do that.
Get a relay harness. Wire the main power directly to the battery or the underhood fusebox where the battery cable connects to the fusebox. You have a choice on how to wire the signal pulse----you can tap the parking lights and the fogs will come on whenever you turn them on. Or you could go with a switch mounted in the dash which will have its own additional harness. There are other ways to hook this up, too.
Do some searching for how other guys have done it. There are plenty of threads.

^ Get a relay.

So I will be using HIDs as well as relay harness for HIDs. I will power these fogs by tapping into the windshield wiper. I want to have a clean look so I will be using "add a fuse". My only question is, can I use "add a fuse" that is only capable of 20A maximum? If so what fuse will be going in the upper limit and the lower limit since I will be using a relay harness for the fogs? Thanks.

The only tap I have ever had to make that involves the wipers was for my DRL module.
There is no reason to use the wipers for an HID install. The #32 slot in the drivers footwell fusebox accomplishes the same purpose----Accessory power with the key turned on. Its a 7.5A fuse, which is well below the rating on the Add-A-Fuse unit you would like to use.
With all of that said, how are you activating the fogs? By wiring the harness to this circuit directly, the HIDs will turn on every time you turn the key to the ON position. Plus, you have to run a line from the interior fusebox to the engine compartment. If you do not want them switched, you can tap the green windshield wiper line in the engine bay just below the windshield on the drivers side. Alternately, you could tap the parking lights and the fogs would turn on & off with those.
Adding a switch gives the ultimate control of the fogs, and may or may not involve a switch harness, depending on how fancy you want to go.
To answer your specific question---you should not use the AAF with a 30A load. Use #32 instead.

I am trying to follow guitarplayer16's DIY, but instead of tapping into the parking light I wanted to tap it into the windshield wiper wire. But, I will be using HIDs along with the relay harness for the HIDs. With that said, what is the correct way to that I can power the HID bulbs if I want to "add a fuse"? Thanks.
