How Do You Get The Fuse Out

To repair or replace the fuse in a Jensen JS800 subwoofer, follow these steps. Always ensure safety by turning off and unplugging the subwoofer before starting.

Tools and Materials Needed

Screwdriver (likely Phillips head)

Replacement fuse (check the user manual for the correct type and rating)

Multimeter (optional, for testing the fuse)

Gloves (optional, for safety)

Steps to Replace the Fuse

Turn Off and Unplug the Subwoofer:

Ensure the subwoofer is turned off and unplugged from the power source to prevent any risk of electric shock.

Locate the Fuse:

The fuse is typically located at the back of the subwoofer near the power cord input. Look for a small compartment or holder labeled "Fuse".

Open the Fuse Holder:

Use a screwdriver to open the fuse holder. Some fuse holders can be opened by turning a small cap or pulling out a small tray.

Remove the Old Fuse:

Carefully remove the old fuse from its holder. If the fuse is blown, you will usually see a broken wire or a blackened appearance inside the fuse.

Test the Fuse (Optional):

If you have a multimeter, you can test the fuse to confirm it is blown. Set the multimeter to the continuity setting and touch the probes to each end of the fuse. A blown fuse will not show continuity.

Insert the New Fuse:

Insert the new fuse into the fuse holder. Make sure it is the correct type and rating as specified in the user manual of the Jensen JS800.

Close the Fuse Holder:

Securely close the fuse holder by replacing the cap or tray and tightening any screws.

Power On and Test:

Plug the subwoofer back in and turn it on. Check if it powers up and functions correctly.

Important Tips

Correct Fuse Type: Ensure you use the correct fuse type and rating. Using the wrong fuse can damage the subwoofer or pose a safety risk.

Check for Underlying Issues: If the fuse blows again shortly after replacement, there may be an underlying issue with the subwoofer that needs further investigation by a professional technician.

Handle with Care: Handle the fuse and subwoofer components carefully to avoid damage.

If you are not comfortable performing this repair or if the problem persists after replacing the fuse, it is advisable to seek help from a professional technician or contact Jensen customer support for further assistance.
