headlight fuse busted again

[j_dipad]

the car is toyota corolla 1.6 gli bigbody

pumutok nanaman ang fuse nang relay, pangalawang beses na.

im using subzero relay with 90/100 watts super white bulb, una 15a na fuse, then got busted, replaced it with 25a busted again.

what seems to be the problem? sa relay kaya? pangit na brand ba yun?

im thinking to remove the relay and replace the bulbs with the original 60/55 watts nalang.

any suggestions mga gurus? replace relay with another brand or put it back to the original

TIA!

did you change the wiring when you upgraded the bulb? if not, thats your problem right there. also replace your socket with ceramic para di matunaw.

yung subzero relay.complete with wires and relay yun gamit ko sir. and may sariling fuse din yun. yun ang palaging pumuputok.2 times na.tsk2. ano kaya magandang gawin? tanggalin ko na lang kaya yung relay at ibalik yung stock wattage na 60/55 watts?

have it checked sa electrician. also check mo yung mga joints/terminal. kung bago wiring mo at para sa wattage ng bulb mo yan talaga, u are having nuisance blowing. either maluwag ang terminal or madumi. use bosch relay din.

sir,bago din mga battery terminals ko.and hindi din iyo maluwag. hay. kakatakot kasi maglagay ng 30a n fuse. sa tingin mo sir?

yung relay kit ang problem... seen that subzero brand and makapal balat lang nung wires, yung laman eh parang 5 strands lang... palit ka nung narva relay kit malaki difference sa wire size and quality nung relays included, been using it on my vitara ang hiace for 2.5 years na. and make sure na mahigpit yung socket terminals kasi loose connections make the wires hot.

tama sir wag 30amps. balik nyo po yung 15amps kasi what ever that fuse is protecting must not draw 15amps or more else imbes na busted fuse lang na 10-15pesos ang papalitan baka libo ang kapalit pag may nasunog na iba piyesa.

[j_dipad]

thanks ng maraming marami mga sir. try ko muna ipabalik yung original wiring ng kotche ko.magiipon muna ko para sa narva kit. bad trip naman na subzero yan

kaya naman i DIY yang wiring kit eh.. mas maka mura ka pa using original automotive wires and bosch relay baka wala pa 1k magastos mo eh..

baka may mali sa connection mo sa ilaw kaya naputok fuse.. pumuputok lang ba basta yung fuse or pumuputok kapag nag high beam ka?

kapag naka high beam lang sir naputok ang fuse. anu kaya mali? eh plug and play lang naman yung relay kit na yun eh.
di kasi ako magaling sa DIY nang mga electrical eh. more on DIY pa ko sa makina.

llang fuse ang kasama ng wiring kit? some wiring kit ay separate ang fuse for the left and right side. you can isolate by removing 1 bulb at a time. sa left side muna then sa right side naman.switch from hi/lo beam. if both side are working fine then walang problema ang wiring kit. kung isa lang fuse mo which is rated 15amps that is too small for a 2 100watts bulb.

pinacheck ko sir sa electrician kanina.nung nakita niya nga din na isa lang ang fuse sabi niya di daw talaga kaya yan. kahit pa daw 30amp pa na fuse ilagay ko puputok daw talaga kasi isa lang.kaya ang gagawin niya lalagyan niya nang dalawang separate fuse kada ilaw yung relay na nakakabit sa kotche ko. yung subzero na relay. ok ba yun suggestion niya?

[Ginnova]

pwede lagyan ng 2 fuse yan kung 2 din ang relay. pero try mo muna yung isolation na 1 side at a time lang nag nakakabit na ilaw. this should be pretty easy to do.

tatanggalin ko yung bulb one at a time? example left side first.then on ko light? switch to high/low beam, then ibabalik ko yung bulb tapos yung right side naman tatanggalin tapos on light, high/low beam ulit sir?

at this time you have not found out what is causing the fuse to blow, you can do the math: power in watts divided by the voltage gives you the current. since you have two headlights, the current is doubled or you can run two fuses in parallel, each controlling one side. the headlight fuse however is safer if you use circuit breakers than using ATO or MINI fuses. running two fuses in parallel is safer- if one side goes out of commission, there is still one headlight in operation

[Ginnova]

try to disconnect both bulbs 1st. then turn on headlight. check fuse kung pumutok. then connect 1 bulb at a time.

update lang po.

ok na po. nangyayari kasi kahit naka bright na light ko naka on pa din ang low. sabay naka ilaw. kaya hindi kinakaya nang fuse, dont buy the subzero brand na relays. isa lang ang fuse nito. bilhin niyo yung dalawang fuse kada isang bulb.

inayos nalang yung wiring nang headlight ko.kaya hindi na sumasabay ang low/high beam. ok na. balak ko din palitan nang relay na bosch, pero gagamitin ko nalang yun wiring nang subzero. thanks sa lahat nang nagreply. very much appreciated mga sir!
