Help installing 12v converter, fuse box and switches
I've got all the parts but I'm not sure where is the best place to but them.
What are the key electrical things I need to be concerned about? Other tips? |

Re: Help installing 12v converter, fuse box and switches
Which cart do you have? That changes ease of accessibility and installation.
In general terms, the shortest runs should be the ones carrying the most amps, so that would be your wires from the pack to the reducer. However, none of those runs are long enough to really matter if you have the correct gauge wire. There’s charts online that will tell you. I used 10g, which was more than necessary, but it’s not worth saving that little bit. Under the seat is a very common location for the reducer and the fuse block. Both of mine are mounted on the driver’s wheel well. They say to mount the reducer to metal (most put it on the flat spot directly in front of where I did. I didn’t want it there, so I just used spacers that keep it off of the plastic. Again, this depends on which cart you have. I wouldn’t put the fuse block in the dash unless you have a location that is easily accessible. You need to be able to get to the fuses. And it’s really not worth it. Running wires from under the seat to behind the dash is easy. However, I did use a buss bar behind the dash, so I didn’t have to run all of the -‘s back under the seat. |

Re: Help installing 12v converter, fuse box and switches
I have a 2015 EXGO TXT. I didn't think about needing access to the fuse block. That kinda makes my decisions easier.
Thanks. |
