Checking and Replacing Fuses
Fuses and circuit breakers protect your vehicle’s electrical system from overloading. If electrical parts in your vehicle are not working, the system may have been overloaded and blown a fuse or tripped a circuit breaker. Before you replace or repair any electrical parts, check the appropriate fuses or circuit breakers.
If an electrical device is not working, check whether the respective fuse is blown. The conductor should be intact. If it is not, replace the fuse with another with the same amperage (same color).
Even after you replace a fuse, it will continue to blow if you do not find what caused the overload. If the fuse continues to blow, have your electrical system checked.
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.
Your Aspire has a main fuse block under the hood and a regular fuse box mounted in the instrument panel behind a cover.
Main fuse block
To remove the main fuse block and replace the fuse:
- Disconnect the negative battery cable.
- Remove the nuts on either end.
- Lift the fuse block and open the flaps on the side of the fuse block.
- Remove the bolts on either side of the block.
- Replace the fuse with a new one of the same rating.
To install the fuse block:
- Place the fuse block cover back in position and fasten the bolts on both sides.
- Attach the nuts on both ends of the fuse block.
- Connect the negative battery cable.

Circuit Breaker
The climate control systems require high amperage. If the rated amperage is exceeded, a protective circuit breaker will open.
If the circuit is broken by the circuit breaker, turn all heater and air-conditioner switches off and restore the circuit by pushing the reset button located in the interior fuse panel.
