What happens when you put the wrong fuse?
Fuses are present to protect the components of the electrical system. Rather than destroying the circuit when there is a surge of power, the fuse blows to protect it. If you use a fuse with the wrong amperage, the fuse won’t blow as intended, damaging the circuit and resulting in a much larger repair bill.

Why is the fuse on the negative terminal?
That will often (but not always) be the negative terminal. Installed in that location, the fuse can protect against the all-too-frequent fireworks that result from someone using a wrench on the other or “hot” terminal and accidentally grounding the handle of the wrench.
Where is the fuse on a battery starter?
There is no fuse between the battery and the starter. There may be fusable links going to the fuse panels. A fusable link is a short piece of wire that is normally 4 wire sizes smaller than the wire it is protecting. It is usually located in an area where, if it burns through, it will not cause major damage.
