I don't know much about electrical problems and need some help.
I have installed two 30 watt spotlights to my 2000 Tourer. I connected them to the accessory circuit in the right cover which calls for a 5 amp fuse. The 5 amp fuse operated the lights about four hours before blowing so I installed a 10 amp fuse thinking that would solve the problem. The lights Indy stayed on an hour before blowing the 10 amp fuse.
I'm halfway through the Natchez trace right now. I intend to install a relay when I get home
Question is can I install a larger fuse?
I don't know if it is fused to protect the circuit or the accessory
Any advise would be appreciated.

I'm compelled to jump in here and suggest that you visit my web site and look at the Smart Switch for fog/running lights. It provides a really easy way of installing a proper wiring harness to power your running lights without overloading your OEM wiring harness. The hard work is done for you and your running lights will operate properly.
TheDigiSync.comBon,
I have both of your Smart Switch relay kits. I got the headlight relay installed but ran out of time to install the accessory relay kit before leaving for the Natchez Trace trip.
As you said, the headlight is remarkably brighter with your relay kit.
Thanks to everyone for the good advice.
Natchez Trace was somewhat of a disappointment to me other than some really great food. Will report on that later.
