1997 PONTIAC PONTIAC headlamp

Electrical System
Add-on Electrical Equipment
NOTICE:
Don’t add anything electrical to your Pontiac
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 Pontiac, see “Servicing
Your Air Bag-Equipped Pontiac” in the Index.
Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected
from short circuits by a combination
of fuses, circuit
breakers, and fusible thermal links in the wiring itself.
This greatly reduces the chance
of fires 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. Spare
fuses are located in the Instrument
Panel Electrical Center. See “Underhood Electrical
Center” in the Index.
Headlamp Wiring
The headlamp wiring is protected by a circuit breaker in
the underhood electrical center.
An electrical overload
will cause the lamps to
go on and off, or in some cases
to remain off. If this happens, have your headlamp
system checked right away.
