Blue Ox Tow Bar Wiring - BX88274

  • Fuse Bypass
  • Bypasses Vehicle Wiring
  • Engine Compartment
  • Custom
  • Blue Ox
  • High Amp Fuse

Use this fuse-disconnect system to prep your vehicle to be towed. Simply relocate your car's fuse with this bypass and flip the integrated switch. To drive your car, just flip the switch back on. No need to remove or replace your fuse.


Features:

  • Bypasses towed car's fuse so you can tow your vehicle without draining its battery
    • Provides a simple alternative to removing high-amp fuse every time you tow
    • Stores fuse so that you won't lose it
  • Installs quickly, easily and permanently
    • Remove high-amp fuse from car's fuse box and install Fuse ByPass in its place
    • Put fuse into Fuse ByPass fuse holder
    • Mount bypass switch near fuse box
  • Maintains functionality of high-amp fuse when switched on
    • Flip switch to "drive" position and drive like normal
  • Overrides high-amp fuse when switched off
    • Flip switch to "tow" position and you're good to tow
  • Made in the USA
  • 1-Year warranty


Note: Consult vehicle's owner's manual to determine which fuse to pull. Do not install a fuse in the Blue Ox Fuse ByPass that has more than a 50-amp rating.


Some automobiles can only be towed if you get under the hood and pull a fuse. If you don't remove this fuse before towing, there's a good chance that your car's battery will be drained by the time you reach your destination.


With the Blue Ox Fuse ByPass, once the initial installation is complete, you won't have to remove or replace your fuse again. Just pull the fuse indicated in your car's owner's manual and replace it with the bypass. After you install the Fuse ByPass, insert the removed fuse into the holder of the bypass system. With the fuse installed in this manner, it will still be able to function as needed. Mount the included switch near the fuse box and you're set.


Whenever you need to drive your car, just make sure the switch is flipped into the "drive" position. When on, the fuse will be active and your vehicle will function normally. Then, when it comes time to tow, switch the Fuse ByPass to "tow." This will render the fuse inactive so that you can flat tow your car without its battery being drained.

  • Recommended Wiring for Flat Towing a 2017 Buick Enclave
    I looked at the online owner's manual for your 2017 Buick Enclave and found (on page 298) that there were 3 fuses that are recommended to be pulled for when you flat tow your vehicle. Because of this I recommend installing the Blue Ox # BX88274 and the Roadmaster # RM76514 to help make this process much easier. For the wiring kit to activate the lights on your Enclave I recommend the Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267. Once this is installed you will only know it is there by the 6-Way connector...

  • Fuse Bypass Kit to Bypass 50-Amp and 15-Amp Mini Fuses in 2011 Buick Enclave
    For your 50-amp fuse you can use Blue Ox ByPass Switch # BX88274 and for your 15-amp mini fuse Blue Ox # BX88272. The Roadmaster FuseMaster Fuse Bypass Switch # RM76514 that you referenced does provide 2-fuse bypass capability but its amperage rating for both is 20-amps.

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2013 GMC Acadia AWD
    Yes, the setup you mentioned is complete for flat towing your 2013 GMC Acadia. The base plate kit part # BX1708 is a confirmed fit and will work great with the Blue Ox Avail # BX7420 tow bar that you mentioned. This is the nicest tow bar around so you'll really like it and it comes with safety cables. For wiring the Blue Ox Tow Bar Wiring Kit # BX8848 and the umbilical adapter # BX88206 would have you covered. Instead of having to manually pull the fuse the part # BX88274 would then...

  • Fuse Bypass for Flat Towing 2011 Honda Fit
    What you need is a fuse bypass. If your fuse is 20 amps or less you can use the Blue Ox Fuse ByPass Switch # BX88272. However, based on what other Honda Fit owners have reported it sounds like you have a 30 amp fuse. If that is the case, you will need the Blue Ox Fuse ByPass Switch - High-Amp Fuse # BX88274 which can handle up to 50 amps.

  • What Fuses on a 2013 Buick Enclave Need to be Pulled Before it Can be Flat Towed
    I checked the owners manual for a 2013 Buick Enclave and you will need to remove the 15 amp OnStar and ECM fuse. These are in the battery compartment behind the passenger seat on the floor. You will also need to remove the 50 amp BATT1 fuse from the underhood fuse block. For your 50-amp fuse you can use Blue Ox ByPass Switch # BX88274 and for your 15-amp mini fuse Blue Ox # BX88272. What this will do is allow you to deactivate these circuits with just a switch instead of having to...

  • Could I use 25 amp fuse in short lead wire which is rated for 20 amp
    The components in the Curt # C93HR Fuse Bypass are only rated for 20 amps. I would not use on a circuit with a higher amp draw. However you can use the Blue Ox # BX88274 bypass rated for 50 amps safely.

  • Fuses To Pull When Flat towing a 2013 Buick Enclave
    Your 2013 Buick Enclave does not have a dedicated circuit for the hazard lights so we can only assume that they are on the blinker circuits. You would have to consult your local Buick dealership for more specific information. However you referenced the Blue Ox # BX88274 Fuse ByPass Switch For Towed Vehicles, so I am wondering if you were also wanting to know what fuses to pull when flat towing your Enclave. I looked in the Enclaves Owner's Manual on page 10-70 and it says, “To prevent...

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2013 Buick Enclave Front Wheel Drive
    To flat tow your 2013 Buick Enclave you're going to need a tow bar, base plates, wiring for the lights, a supplemental braking system for the brakes, and possibly a high-low adapter. I suggest the Blue Ox # BX1708 for a base plate kit. To connect to the RV I like the Avail # BX7420 for a tow bar because of the 10,000 pound weight capacity. The Avail also includes safety cables. To power the lights of the Enclave use the diode kit # RM-154. According to an online owner's manual for a...

  • Recommended Fuse Bypass Switch for a 2009 Honda Fit
    You are correct in that the Roadmaster FuseMaster Fuse Bypass part # RM76511 and the Blue Ox Fuse ByPass Switch part # BX88272 both have a 20 amp max fuse rating. This is mainly due to the gauge of wire that is used in the harness in relation to the distance that the circuit needs to travel. However, I do still have a solution for you that will not require you to physically pull the fuse each and every time and that is the Blue Ox Fuse ByPass High-Amp Fuse Switch part # BX88274 which...
