To access the fuse, pry back the latch with a screwdriver,
then pull down on the base of the unit.
If you need to
replace
the fuse, be sure to use a fuse that is the same
amperage.
Push the base of the unit firmly up into the cover until
the latch snaps into the locked position.
Headlamp Wiring
The headlamp wiring is protected by a circuit breaker i
the lamp switch. An electrical overload will cause the
in
lamps to go on and off, or in some cases to remain off. If
this happens, have your headlamp system checked right
away.
Windshield Wipers
The windshield wiper motor is protected by 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, have
it fixed.
Power Windows and Other Power Options
Circuit breakers in the circuit breakerhelay 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.
