As a title says does anyone know if pin 15 and pin 16 run off of the same fuse for the radio (radio +)? Do you know the fuse number for those pins? I'm upgrading the radio to a higher wattage Sony radio (45w RMS), and it requires 15 amp fuse, or your supposed to run a new wire... Thanks! This is on a 2015 B7 with RCD510.

Speaker wattage ratings are not the same as what the radio draws.
You're probably alright as is!

You could always test it by pulling the fuse for one and see if the other one goes dead at the same time.
