Heated Front Screen

MattYorke · Dec 29, 2022

Is anyone able to confirm what fuse rating I need for a heated front screen, part number LR058447. Some sources say 20A (John Craddock, for example), some say 30, some say 40. My wiring design will differ depending.

Thank you.

I've attached the wiring diagrams for the Tdci front and rear screens, hope this helps ------

30 amps it is then. Thank you.

Just in case useful for anyone else, in addition to the fuse spec, we can also see from the diagram that it's supplied by a 2.5mm sq wire

30 amps means you need 30+ amp cable, the fuse is there to protect the cable , not the accessory it runs. 30 amp cable seems a bit of overkill for a heated screen.

Long time ago I can remember checking 300tdi disco heated screen, and from memory that had two 30 amp fuses one for each half of the screen.

Some screens have 3 lugs(split screen)
New versions are 2 pins

This was a 97 R reg, long time ago now.
