Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from
short circuits by fuses, circuit breakers and thermal links
in the wiring itself. This greatly reduces the chance of
fires caused by electrical problems.
The main fuse box in your engine compartment is on the
right side. It protects all electrical loads.
For access to the main fuses, pull off
the cover. A spare
fuse
is also inside the fuse box. Another
fuse box is under the left
side of the instrument
panel.
The fuses here protect each separate circuit
including headlamps. If you have electrical failure,
check here first.
