[SV39200( ALL)01/95]
High current fuses are circuit protectors that are
part of the wiring harness for some electrical
equipment. These, like fuses, open when the
circuit load exceeds their amperage rating. High
current fuses may be purchased from your Ford
or Lincoln-Mercury dealer.
[SV39500( GV)06/94]
The high current fuse panel is located in the
engine compartment near the battery.

If you need to check a fuse, follow these steps:
[SV41230( GV)03/93]
1. Find the fuse panel to the left of the steering
column. Remove the fuse panel cover to
expose the fuse panel.
[SV41245( BCGV)03/93]
2. Check the fuse to see if it is blown. Look
through the clear side of the fuse to see if
the metal wire inside is separated. If it is,
the fuse should be replaced.
