I bought 100 of the UL 1/4"X11/4" 7.5A/250V glass type fast acting fuse. I received them in the mail and put the fuse in and it blows every time. What fuse do you use to make it work? I went on the Coleman website and the fuse they used to sell for it is discontinued.
12V Coleman Fuse

you could always use tinfoil but if there is a problem with you colman it will burn it up.
BossOutlaw88 Thanks this. -
Somewhere in the device, you have an excessive draw that is blowing that fuze. Find it. Fix it. That may mean replacing the fan/cooler assembly.
Good LuckBossOutlaw88 Thanks this. -
And Walmart sells / sold the replacement fan unit.....if you need it.
BossOutlaw88 Thanks this. -
this is for a cooler that plugs into a cigar lighter ? If so I have had similar trouble and the fault was the end that plugs into the cigar lighter had worn out and gotten hot. It's better to cut it off and hard wire it in to a fuse protected circuit or attach it to cb wiring studs if you have one not being used.
But like the other guys said it could be the fan, and you definitely want to take it apart and clean up the cooling fins and fan from time to time to keep it running efficiently.BossOutlaw88 Thanks this. -
I've only had this cooler for a month. It's still brand new. I'm just gonna discard it and buy a Igloo 45 quart. I'm done with Coleman.
CAXPT Thanks this.
