The Honda 98200-31500 Blade Fuse (15A) is a genuine OEM electrical protection component designed for a wide range of Honda outboard motors, horizontal shaft engines, generators, and compact tractors. As an OEM part, it matches the exact amperage rating and blade-tab dimensions Honda specifies across this equipment lineup, which spans models including BF25, BF30, BF35, BF40, BF45, BF50, BF75, and BF90 outboard motors; EM5000 and EM7000 generators; EU6500 and EU7000 inverter generators; GD320 and GD410 horizontal shaft diesel engines; GX160, GX200, GX240, GX270, GX340, GX360, and GX390 horizontal shaft engines; and the H6522 compact tractor. Because this fuse appears across multiple Honda product families, always confirm part number 98200-31500 against your machine's serial number before ordering.
Key Features
- Correct 15A Rating — the OEM-specified amperage ensures the circuit opens at exactly the threshold Honda engineered for each application, protecting wiring and components without nuisance tripping.
- Standard Blade-Tab Format — drops into any Honda-spec blade fuse holder without adapters or modifications, restoring the electrical circuit quickly.
- Broad Honda Fitment — listed for BF-series outboards, GX-series horizontal shaft engines, GD-series diesel engines, EM and EU generators, and the H6522 compact tractor; check your serial number against the fitment table to confirm the correct application.
- Circuit Protection When It Counts — a blown or missing fuse leaves the downstream circuit unprotected; installing the correct OEM fuse restores proper overcurrent protection and gets the machine running again.
A blade fuse is a sacrificial overcurrent protection device wired into an electrical circuit. When current exceeds the rated limit — due to a short circuit or an overloaded component — the fuse element melts and breaks the circuit before damage reaches wiring, switches, or more expensive control components. Replacing a blown fuse with one of the correct amperage rating is essential: an undersized fuse will blow under normal load, while an oversized one will fail to protect the circuit it is meant to guard. On Honda outboards, engines, generators, and tractors, this 15A blade fuse sits in a dedicated fuse holder that accepts the standard blade format, making replacement straightforward once the underlying fault has been identified and corrected.
