Default Voltage Reducer question

I have a factory reducer on my G29 and was fiddling with some of the wires when one "arched" and the lights are radio wouldn't turn on. I checked the reducer and was only getting .9V on the outlet so something went wrong. I hooked up the lights and radio to one 12V battery just to check them and they worked so no damage.

I don't see it, but does the reducer have a fuse that I may have blown or do you think its toast?

Thanks
LP

My reducer has a fuse right at the reducer. It is inline with the positive lead.

If the arc was 48v getting into the 12v part of the reducer, its toast. The reducer does not tolerate that at all.

I get a significant spark when I connect up my batteries - and it is the reducer that does it. It has not blown the fuse though. As long as you had it connected correctly, it should be ok.
