Fuses for Aux switches

[GWM4Tennis]

I had to get new fuses and relays after installing the Aux switches and none fit in and none are clicking into the fuse box. Anyone have Idea about this? Not getting any power after install.

Did you install yourself or dealer install?

If yourself... The dealer needs to flash the computer to tell the system you now have aux switches installed.

It sounds like you installed yourself... If so, you'd have to get the dealer to flash unless you can on your own.

It has been flashed and showing on the Uconnect. I did it myself as far as install

There were no fuses or relays in the fuse box for the aux locations and the fuses don't sit in the box well they just slip in and out very loosely.

Which fuse block? From my understanding the fuses are independent of a fuse block and is located within the engine compartment along the firewall with the PDC for aux switches next to the coolant reservoir also at the firewall.

I understand that but the block has relays ans fuses listed as well and I read someone else the dealers had to install a fuse so I added the ones that show for HD ACCY #1 thru #4 — If Equipped10 Amp Red Micro, 15 Amp Blue Micro, also relays K17, 18, 20 and 21. still no power only thing left is to go back and check my connections but the uconnect is flassed and says it showing the switches

The block on driver-side near the coolant reservoir is for the relays. I think the OP is at the fuse box by the battery.

Are there female connectors in the fuse slots? I'm sure you know which fuses to use, but there isn't much information to go on.

Where did you ground?

Do you own a multimeter? If so... start at the beginning.
1. power at battery
2. power at fuses
3. power on hot side of relay
4. power to switches
5. power from switches
6. power at load side of relay
7. power at either internal or external pigtails

Oh... and not to be a wise guy... are they connected to the battery?

The block on driver-side near the cooloant reservoir is for the relays. I think the OP is at the fuse box by the battery.

It dose not feel like any thing in the fuse box is catching so do not think so. I pulled out a couple of the other fuses in the box and they catch but not the ones I installed

Yes the battery connected to the auto on off needs to be checked and I have read a number of post about it blowing when the negative connection next to the battery is disconnected.

Maybe this will help...start at #18526

#18551 makes a mention of a '5th fuse'
