When I bought my car, I was told that it had red underglow, but the original owner had disconnected it. So I thought that I would have it reconnected by a professional, and have a switch thrown on there. So as I was cleaning my car the other day, I found there was already a switch for it. I opened up my hood, and connected the wire to the battery, and turned the switch on. Nothing. I then checked the fuses running down to the underglow. One of them looked like it was blown. It was an 8A fuse, but it was smaller than all the ones I could find at Home Depot, or Kragen. So I got one that was the same size but only 6 amps. So I then inserted the new fuse, and flipped the switch. The underglows come on for about a second, then just flash off, until I flip the switch off, then on again. Does anyone know why this is happening? Could it maybe be that the fuse is to small, but not blowing just turning off?
