1997 PONTIAC FIREBIRD window

Main Fuse Block
The other is in the engine compartment. Open the cover
on either of the boxes to expose the €uses.
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.
If
you ever have a problem on the road and don’t have a
spare €use, you can “borrow”
one. Just pick some
feature
of your car 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.
