1997 PONTIAC PONTIAC fuse

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, have
it fixed.
Power Windows and Other Power Options
Circuit breakers in the fuse panel 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.
Instrument Panel Fuse Block
r
Some fuses are in a fuse block located inside of the
glove
box behind a small bin, on the right side. To
open, pull on the plastic strap and pull the part out.
The fuse block is inside. On the back edge of this part
is
a fuse puller and a fuse usage chart. To use the fuse
puller, 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.
To reinstall the bin, position the lower end and rotate
the top into position. Press
on the sides until it snaps
into place.
