The Honda 98200-42000 Mini Fuse (20A) is a genuine OEM component designed for BF200, BF225, and BF250 outboard motors. As a direct Honda replacement, this fuse matches the original electrical specification your outboard left the factory with, ensuring the circuit protection behaves exactly as Honda engineered it. Confirm your outboard's serial number against the fitment table before ordering, as Honda updates part applications at production breaks.
Key Features
- Correct Amperage Rating — genuine OEM 20A rating matches the original fuse spec for the protected circuit, avoiding nuisance blows or under-protection that a misrated fuse can cause
- Direct OEM Replacement — Honda part number 98200-42000 drops into the original fuse holder without adaptation, restoring electrical protection to the factory configuration
- Fits BF200, BF225, and BF250 Outboards — listed for Honda's larger four-stroke outboard motors; verify your serial number against the fitment table to confirm this is the right fuse for your unit
A mini blade fuse is a fast-acting overcurrent protection device in the outboard's electrical system. When current in a circuit exceeds the rated amperage — due to a short circuit, a wiring fault, or a failing component — the fuse element melts and breaks the circuit before the wiring or electronics are damaged. Replacing a blown fuse with one of the correct rating is essential: a fuse with too high a rating will not interrupt the circuit in time to protect downstream components, while one rated too low will blow under normal operating loads.
