Fuse needed??

tlfinn · 11-08-2019, 08:54 AM

I have been doing some upgrades (controller/solenoid) on my 01 ezgo txt and I thought I read somewhere that mentioned a fuse? Is this needed? like a in-line fuse? and where is it recommended to be located?

Are you installing an Alltrax controller? If so, it should include the fuse. It goes on the main battery positive terminal.

Yes it is an alltrax, a used one....so i need a fuse...im assuming an in-line will work? You know what size?

Mine is a TXT Series motor stock set up, it has a 250A inline fuse connected to the DC motor controller and another 50A fuse heading to the powerwise battery charger... Try amazon...

I use an "ANN 250 FUSE". They are 'slow blow' fuses and cost 12 to 15 bucks normally.

Mine is the SR-48400...400 amp controller...so will a 250Amp fuse be big enough?

Checked the SR-48400 manual, it says 250A is enough....

awesome...thanks guys for the input!!

250a will cover the 400a controller as the fuse is slow blow.

Alltrax recommends an ANN250 for use with 400A or smaller controllers and an ANN400 for 450A or larger.

BTW: An ANNxxx fuse is a "Very Fast Acting" fuse, but that is in fuse terms, and it can pass twice its rating for 10 seconds or so without burning open.
