Checking and Replacing Fuses
A vehicle’s electrical system is protected from electrical overload damage by fuses. If any of your vehicle’s lights, accessories, or controls do not work, check the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse has blown, the element inside the fuse will be broken or melted. Check those fuses first that protect the failed component, but check all the fuses before deciding that a blown fuse is not the cause. Replace any blown fuses with another with the same amperage (same color) and check the component’s operation.
Notice
- Before changing a fuse, check the ignition key has been removed and that all the other electric devices have been turned off/disabled.
- Do not use a screwdriver or any other metal object to remove fuses because it may cause a short circuit and damage the system.
- Never replace a fuse with anything but another fuse of the same rating. A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and possibly a fire. Never install a wire or aluminum foil instead of the proper fuse even as a temporary repair. It may cause extensive wiring damage and a possible fire.
- If the replacement fuse blows, this indicates an electrical problem. Avoid using the system involved and immediately consult at a qualified service center.
