Electric Current Value

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Mazda MPV. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: If 10 Amp A/C fuse is often burnt out, the cause may be short circuit in the stator coil. Perform the following inspection.

Disconnect the magnetic clutch connector.
Connect battery positive voltage and an ammeter to terminal A and ground to terminal B of the magnetic clutch as shown.
