Icon2 A.C. DELETE electrical question.

OK, so i have searched around and it seems like everyone knows the physical components that have to be removed like the ac lines, condenser fan assembly, belts, etc.

But my question is do you guys bother pulling the 20 amp condensor fan fuse at the engine bay fuse box? in theory power would still be flowing to the electrical harness that runs to the condenser fan motor despite its removal. I dont know about you but i dont like the idea of hot lines running open to the engine bay even if they still have the grey plastic connections on them.........

lemme know what you guys did.... as of right know i pulled the fuse/ checked functionality of heater motor etc/ all seems good .............

I don't think it would be an issue, but might as well since you aren't using it

The worst thing that can happen is the fuse blowing if the connector gounds to something. Just pull the fuse if it really bugs you.

As a mechanic I alway pull fuses for circuits that are not in use. Liability concerns
Plus it's free weight reduction
