where to locate the fuse on the panel.
[SV35900(ALL)11/94]
3. Check the fuse to see if it is blown. To
remove the fuse, use the pulling tool
attached to the inside cover of the fuse
panel. 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.
