Default Correct wire gauge

Doing some wiring on my 07 FatBoy handlebar left controls and have 18 gauge wire but packaging shows max amps of 13 while the mini fuse is 15 amps. Doing this on the turn signal and headlight wire. Will this work?
Thanks for all help.

Awesome! Appreciate the very quick reply, couldn’t find anything in my service manual. All is good, going to get the 14 gauge now
