If you want to do some of your own service work, you’ll
want to get the proper Chevrolet Service Manual. It tells
you much more about how to service your Chevrolet
than this manual can.
To order the proper service
manual, see “Service and Owner Publications” in
the Index.
Your vehicle has an air bag system. Before attempting to
do your own service work, see “Servicing Your Air
Bag-Equipped Chevrolet” in the Index.
You should keep
a record with all parts receipts and list
the mileage and the date
of any service work you
perform. See “Maintenance Record” in the Index.
T/ ‘I CAT’ J:
You can be injured and your vehicle could be
damaged
if you try to do service work on a
vehicle without knowing enough about it.
Be sure you have sufficient knowledge,
experience, and the proper replacement
parts and tools before you attempt any
vehicle maintenance task.
Be sure to use the proper nuts, bolts and
other fasteners. “English” and “metric”
fasteners can be easily confused.
If you use
the wrong fasteners, parts can later break
or fall
off. You could be hurt.

Add-on Electrical Equipment
I NOTICE:
Don’t add anything electrical to your Chevrolet
unless
you check with your dealer first. Some
electrical equipment can damage your vehicle and the damage wouldn’t be covered by your
warranty. Some add-on electrical equipment
can keep other components from working as
they should.
Your vehicle has an air bag system. Before attempting to
atid anything electrical to your Chevrolet, see “Servicing
Your Air Bag-Equipped Chevrolet”
in the Index.
Headlamps
The headlamp wiring is protected by a circuit breaker.
An electrical overload will cause the
lamps to go on and
off, or in some cases to remain off. If this happens, have
your headlamp wiring 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 and
not snow, etc., be sure to get it fixed.
Power Windows and Other Power Options
Circuit breakers 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.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle 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
of fires caused by
electrical problems.
Look at the silver-colored band inside the fuse. If the
band is broken or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure
you
replace a bad fuse with a new one of the correct size.
Main Fuse Block
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 vehicle that you can get along
without
-- like the radio or cigarette lighter -- and use
its fuse, if it is the size you
need. Replace it as soon as
you can.
The main fuse block is located on the left side of your
instrument panel. Open the cover
to expose the fuses.
