Positive battery cable question.

What is the black "bulb" that branches off of the positive battery cable for? It has 20 written on it. I broke off the wire at the base of the bulb, and GM no longer sells the positive battery cable. Thanks for any and all help!!

Yes there is a fuse there 20 amps.

You can attach an additional fused wire to the battery using a ring terminal.


Happy Racing!

When you see fog lights on in good weather beware. Low performance driver ahead. Right grandma?

How bout those nervous nellies too scared to drive without headlights on in the daytime or if there is a little rain!
