Default 262c - Fuses

Good Day. Is there any risk of replacing all my 8 and 16 amp fuses with say something higher. Will it cause problems?

Yeah, FIRE. Each of your electrical circuits are design to carry a certain amount of current depending on its function. The fuse's function is to break or blow if there is a short or if the current is much higher than what the circuit is design for. If not, the wires will over heat and could start a fire.
