Fuse box diagram (fuse layout), location and assignment of fuses and relays Chevrolet Cavalier and Pontiac Sunfire (1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005).
Checking and Replacing Fuses
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from short circuits by a combination of fuses, circuit breakers, and fusible thermal links. This greatly reduces the chance of damage caused by electrical problems.
Look at the silver-colored band inside the fuse. If the band is broken or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure you replace a bad fuse with a new one of the identical size and rating.
If you ever have a problem on the road and don’t have a spare fuse, you can “borrow” one that has the same amperage. Just pick some feature of your vehicle that you can get along without – like the radio or cigarette lighter – and use its fuse if it is the correct amperage. Replace it as soon as you can.
There are two fuse blocks in your vehicle: the engine compartment fuse block and the instrument panel fuse block.
Note
- Before replacing a fuse check that the key has been removed from the ignition and that all the services are switched off and/or disengaged.
- Do not repair fuses and never replace a blown fuse with one that has a higher amp rating. This can cause damage to the electrical system and fire.
- Never replace a broken fuse with anything other than a new fuse. Use always an intact fuse of the same color.
- If a fuse blows again contact a qualified service center.
Engine Compartment Fuse Box
The engine compartment fuse block is located on the driver’s side of the engine compartment. Lift off the cover to check the fuses.
