89sp fuses-- can you use todays new car fuses?

[ED GARDELS]

Today, I had to replace my first fuse. The "can" like fuses, are
they special, or can you use the newer type auto fuses. It was a 15
amp fuse to the lower flouresent lamps. I swaped it with another like
amp fuse.

Thanks for any info

ED,
The "can" like fuse usually when tripped, it cools, then resets. A good
thing to keep in place. I'd replace the original with a new one of the
same design/rating as it seems the old one is bad. Or, you may have
electrical issues that need to be resolved so the fuse does not trip.

Yes, you can use the auto fuses that disconnect and do no reconnect.
