# 981974 Fuse | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta fuse weighing 0.025 kg. Fuses are matched to the circuit they protect, so order by part number and check it against the holder and the wiring it serves - fuse 981405 is the separate 3 amp item in this run and the two are not interchangeable.

## ⚙️ Key Features

-   0.025 kg
-   Circuit protection device - order by part number against the holder
