CODE MODEL YEAR PLANT
This is the legal identifier for your Buick. It appears on
a plate in the front corner of the instrument panel, on the
driver’s side. You can see it if you look through the
windshield from outside your vehicle. The VIN also
appears on the Vehicle Certification and Service Parts
labels and the certificates
of title and registration. The 8th
character in your
VIN is the engine code. This
code
will help you identify your engine, specifications
and replacement parts.
Service Parts Identification Label
You’ll find this label on the spare tire cover. It’s very
helpful
if you ever need to order parts. On this label is:
your VIN,
the model designation,
paint information and
0 a list of all production options and special
equipment.
Be sure that this label is not removed from the vehicle.

Electrical System
Add-on Electrical Equipment
NOTICE:
Don’t add anything electrical to your Buick 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
add anything electrical to your Buick, see “Servicing
Your
Air Bag-Equipped Buick” in the Index.
Maxifuse@/Relay Center
To check the fuses in this underhood fuse center, turn
the knob counterclockwise and remove the cover. There
is a chart inside the cover that explains the features and
controls governed
by each fuse and relay.

Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination of fuses and circuit
breakers. This greatly reduces the chance of damage
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 identical size
and rating.
There are three fuse blocks in your vehicle: the
Instrument Panel Fuse Block located under the
instrument panel, the Underhood Fuse Block located on
the passenger’s side engine compartment, and the Rear
Fuse Block located under the rear seat.
Instrument Panel Fuse Block
The right side fuse panel is located under the
instrument panel.
Remove the hush panel to reveal the fuses.
To remove
the panel, remove the three screws located along the
rear edge of the panel. Place the wide end
of the fuse
puller over the plastic end
of the fuse. Squeeze the ends
over the fuse and pull it out.
>pare fuses are located
in the empty slots shown on the
following chart. When finished, replace
the hush panel. Replace lamps,
connectors, and HVAC duct temperature sensors if they
were removed.
