I have blown the 15A lighter fuse on my 02 allroad about 10 times..I am using it
for a combination of accessories..Garmin GPS, Cell phone charger, XM roady2..
but not simultaneously..
the fuse fuse seems to blow randomly..not neccesarily when any particular access is being used..not tied to a particular outlet either..
Is it possible that the 15A fuse is not enough for accessories and I should move up to 20A? Has anybody else had this problem...

by the way if you you want to raelly utilise the bose system...xm is unbeleivable..
better sound than cds

no.. bad idea.

the fuses are there for a reason, to protect the wiring from carying too much power. increasing the fuse size will alow more power to travel thru the wires then was ment by the manufacture.
