Having trouble with my bc70 radio and the corded power fuse. The fuse
3amps keeps blowing out. What size fuse is needed? THANKS !


BC70 probably draws less than 1 amp. My guess would be to look in the
cigarette light plug itself. I have seen several of these get twisted
around inside and the strands of copper wire get pulled out of the
pressure contacts and cross over to the other polarity. Some of the
type plugs, you can easily take apart, twist and perhaps even tin the
leads with solder, the put them back in and they are good as new.

If you don't want to do that, pay a couple of bucks and get a new one.
