That would be more than enough for a GPS. Sizing a fuse is more about the size of wire being used. The larger wire you are using, the bigger fuse you can use to protect it.

Check all of your fuses. Check them good too.
The orange wire should be powered by a 20 amp fuse. The yellow should be from that 10 amp radio fuse. I find it hard to believe that fuse is good.
