Just change it. Fuse diagram is in the factsheets in the members area if you need it.

the battery is next to me in my front room charging up. I've just had the split charger installed today but they did not have my battery to put in. so the wire for the internal light has not been plugged in yet only the one for the radio.
I'm not to sure if my second battery is holding a charge so i saw looking to bypass the system for now if i remove the wire from the radio slot and replace the fuse i take it everything will work fine.

OK now i understand, yes isolate and tape the wire you take out of the fuse, just in case you forget and connect the second battery. it should then work with the fuse fitted.
