[QUOTE="Low Level FJR Pilot, post: 493607, member: 5871"] I routed the power cord for the slime pump from the battery up my handle bars and it just sit there ready to accept the slime pump when I need it. I learned the stupid lesson the hard way when I used this same plug to hook my Battery Tender to. It blew the fuse and I didn't notice it until I went to test the pump one day. Then in testing the pump, thinking it was bad, I plugged it into the accessory outlet and blew that fuse. A quick slap in the forehead with my right hand and I realized what I had done (typical guy, no read the funny manual that come with purchase of bike/pump/battery tender) and replaced the fuse in the power cord for the slime pump and it ran like a champ. I still haven't gotten back to replaceing the accessory outlet yet. I am going to route a new battery tender cable now. Stuff happens when you don't read the manuals. B) BTDT. [/QUOTE]
