Fuses for the Defi Blue Racer Gauges

Where the hell are you guys finding them?!

I bought 4 Defi gauges, and 1 AMS gauge. The AMS wideband requires a 10 amp which I had no problem finding that at radio shack along with a holder.

But the Defi's are requiring (2) .3 amp fuses per gauge. I can't find .3 amps anywhere. Only one shop in town had a couple .315 amp fuses and only 3 holders. So I bought (4) pack of .315 fuses and a couple holders (I'm only installing one defi gauge for now and the wideband.)

Is there any place online that I can get this kind of thing? I googled but couldn't find any .3 amps. What have you other Defi guys been doing?!

They come with the fuses installed. I don't know what your solution would be for replacements other than online shopping, 0.3A is, as you pointed out, an odd rating.

I'm running 3 Blue Racers with no fuse issues at all.

the defi model number for the fuses is PDF06508G. You might be able to get them from defi directly.

Actually the paperwork that came with the gauges stated that I'd need to buy and crimp in the fuses myself. The gauges did not come with them. Are you guys sure we have the same stuff? I got the defi blue racers that do not come with a controller.

I am looking at the install paperwork for my Defi Blue Racer gauges. No where does it say to crimp on a fuse...the wiring harness that comes with each gauges has an inline fuse on the power line.

Read those directions again...

I as well did not need to do any fuse work because they were already inline, and it is the defi blue racer gauge set, without the controller.
