I have a 2019 320, wondering if I should carry spare thermal fuse or do I have the resetting one, thanks Art

    Adle model 3010 has two slow blow fuses one each on +12VDC and Ground at Alde
    Adle model 3020 has one slow blow fuse on the +12VDC at Adle.

    Ground fuse on 3010 was the fuse most frequently failing.
    Model 3020 have very few reports of fuse failures . . . I still carry a spare.

    Have not heard of any Adle with a 'resetting' fuse.

    @MuttonChops, the thermal 'fuse' is a special component soldered into the circuit board, designed to burn out if the circuit board gets too warm.

    I was "lucky" enough to find it when our Alde wouldn't start even after checking the two 'hidden' fuses.

    @gulfarea Art, I don't know if they've added that to the Alde. I've only heard folks chatting about replacing theirs with a resettable type.

    Someone might know better than I do, though.

    Thanks for the info! Somehow I thought Alde was installing the reset type in later years but that may not be the case. Art

    Possibly the Europe TaBs have the Alde with the resettable thermal fuse?
