Hi everyone.
I have the problem of the lights fuse melting the stock fuse box, have any of you had the same problem and what can be the cause.
The lights is stock, the fuse don't blow even if I put a 10a fuse in.

yes, happened to many
It is caused by slightly corroded connectionsn in the fuse box. Clean the terminals (and the fuse) carefully. What the 510 guys do is disconnect battery, unbolt fuse box and soak in vinegar overnight. The acid cleans it up good.

Yea I was having that problem.. My headlight switch was wired wrong but apparently the reason is because the fuse holder itself gets loose in the plastic and causes it to heat up and melt the fuse box
