ENGEL FRIDGE

 Hi all just wondering if anyone can answer, I broke the cigar end of the lead for my engel frige it has the j type plug abnd new lead is $70 odd dollars, can you just cut the end off and fit a normal cig end on. aparantly the engel one has a thermal fuse.

Cheers for any advise

Depends where you broke it.you can replace just the tip. They have a fuse in them so genuine is best if you ask me. Jaycar makes a cheap knock off tho!

I have done it a few times. Jaycar have good ciggy lighter plugs. 

 

If if you’ve still got the original fuse, put it in the new plug. Normal fuses are fine, and Engels have 2 fuses anyway, so don’t stress over the thermal fuse, but if you’re really pedantic, get the thermal fuses from eBay.
