The wiring circuits in your car are protected from short
circuits by a combination of fuses, circuit breakers, and
fusible thermal links in the wiring itself. This greatly
reduces the chance.

problems.
Be sure to use the correct fuse if you need to replace
one.
If you ever have a problem on the road and don’t
have a spare fuse, you can ‘‘borrow” one of the correct
value. Just pick some feature
of your car that you can
get along without
- like the radio or cigarette lighter -
and use its fuse, if it is of the value you need. Replace it
as soon as you can.

Headlights
The headlight wiring is protected by a circuit breaker 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.
Windshield Wipers.
The windsheld wiper motor is protected hy a circuit
breaker and a fuse.
If the motor overheats due to heavy
snow, etc., the wiper will stop until the motor cools.
If
the .overload is caused by some electrical problem and
not snow, etc., be sure to get it fixed.
Power Windows and Other Power Options
Circuit .breakers in the fuse panel protect the power
windows and other power accessories. When the current
load is too heavy, the circuit breaker opens. and closes,
protecting the circuit until the problem is fixed or goes
away.
Lumbar Power Seat Controls
If you have the lumbar controls for the power seat, there
is a
10 amp fuse under each seat 'wrapped in tape.
Should your
seat ever not work, this fuse should be
checked.
