I'm looking to install a dashcam in a 2014 Prius Plug-in and a 2012 Prius C. I want to use an Add-A-Fuse, but I'm having trouble figuring out which fuse type it takes. Do these model year Prius's just use a low-profile mini fuse?
This is what I used: 5* Add A Circuit Fuse Tap MICRO Fuse Holder ATT mini LOW PROFILE & FREE FUSE US 701722895539 | eBay You can search and find what you need. I ordered 5, just in case. The fuses in my 2010 are the micro ones. Or "low profile mini". They are open on the sides.
Yes, it's confusing. I guess it's who decides to call it what. I call it the one with the sides of the plastic exposed versus the small fuse with only the metal contacts exposed. That's why I want to SEE it so I KNOW which one I want/need. Pull one of the fuses, look at it, then get one that matches. Maybe pull a few fuses incase someone replace the original one with the wrong one.
I’m pretty sure you are talking about ATM-LP size fuses. (Wife has the car out today so I can’t verify 100%) Danger Will Robinson: make sure you use a good quality fuse in that expander. Amazon and eBay are chock full of dangerous knockoffs. Littelfuse and Bussmann are examples of quality brands.
Hi folks - I'm looking to do the same here to install a wireless car charger and some interior under dash lighting. Per @Leadfoot J. McCoalroller suggestion I'm looking at Bussmann brand. I found these dual fuse taps. Is this something I would need to use an empty fuse slot, or only if I'm putting in a currently used slot?
You'll have a problem getting the fusebox cover on, since the adapter sits higher than the space under the cover.
Well, unfortunately my fuse box cover has gone missing. I believe it happened when my car was being serviced. I'd had it serviced at a few places over a couple of years before I needed to mess with it. So, I have no idea who did it. However, is there another way to do this that would allow for the cover to be used?
