    fuse

    I read somewhere the the 250 pro xs takes a 20 amp ato fuse if you ever have one blow. Is that fuse the same as a 20 amp ATC fuse? I can't find ATO anywhere and not sure if there is a difference. Thanks

    "ATC" would NOT be the correct fuse.

    What you'd be looking for would be the "ATM" style "mini-plastic" fuse.

    However, if you blow a fuse..... IT BLEW FOR A REASON. Simply replacing the fuse can (and sometimes does) result in "further electrical system damage".

    Thanks Don, actually I meant ATM and I hear what you are saying. I just wanted the correct spare fuse on hand if needed
