Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine FUSES AND CIRCUIT BREAKER
The wiring circuits in yoUr 198 -1 Chevrolet are protected from short circuits by
a
combination of fuses, circllit breakers, and fusible thermal links in the
wiring itself. This greatly reduces the hazard of electrically caused fires in the
automobile. The fuse junction block is located under the left side of the
instrument panel .
The headlight
wiring is protected by a circuit bre a ker in the light switch . An
electrical overload
will cause the lights to go on and off, or in some cases to
remain off. If this happens, have your headlight wiring checked right away.
Be sides a fuse , the windshield wiper
motor is also protected by a circuit
breaker .
If the motor overheats, due to over load ing caused by heavy snow,
etc
., the wiper will remain stopped until the motor cools. Be sure to have th';·
cause of the overloading corrected.
Also , a
circuit breaker , on the f~se. panel, protects the power window, power
seat , rear
window defogger (elec.) and oth'9rcircuits when vehicle is so
equipped. Where current load is too heavy , the circuit breaker intermittently
opens and. c loses , protecting the circu it until the cause is found and
eliminated.
Fuses, located in th .e Junction Block beneath the dash on the
driver'S side are:
