My BMV712 has stopped working. I suspect the fuse may have gone. What rating is the fuse so I know what to replace it with?
Thanks very much,
Tom

BMV 712 fuse
@t0mb0, T1AL250V
If replacing the fuse doesn't work, get in touch with your distributor and they'll have a troubleshooting protocol for the BMV/shunt PCB/display head.
I'm wondering about your answer, Justin. My 712 came with 100mA fuses, not 1A. The T1AL250 is a 1 amp fuse. Is there something I'm missing? (I came here because I blew one of the 100mA fuses too and needed more info about the fuses.)
@I8DBBQ, The original 100mA fuses should be replaced with a 1A fuse; since the original shipments of those it's been found that the 100mA fuses are prone to voltage drop and other issues over the course of their life, so they should be replaced with the 1A fuse.
Not an answer, but this leads me to another question:
How does one locate/remove the fuse? I see no way to disassemble the BMV 702 I own.
Yay for fixing instead of replacing!
The fuse is in the red (pos) wire that connects to the shunt.
