1998 Oldsmobile Aurora fuse box

Removing the Rear Seat Cushion
To access the battery and rear compartment fuse panels,
the rear seat cushion must be removed. This procedure is
somewhat difficult. You may wish to have your retailer
do this for you.
NOTICE:
The battery and main fuse boxes are located
under the rear seat cushion. The battery’s
ground terminal and some relay wires are
exposed.
To help avoid damage to the battery
and wires, be careful when removing or
reinstalling the seat cushion.
Do not remove
covers from covered parts.
Do not store anything
under the seat, as objects could touch exposed
wires and cause a short.
To Remove the Rear Seat Cushion
1. Pull up on the front of the cushion to release the
front hooks.
2. Pull the cushion up and out toward the front of

A safety belt that isn’t properly routed through
the seat cushion or is twisted won’t provide the
protection needed in a crash.
If the safety belt
hasn’t been routed through the seat cushion at
all, it won’t be there to work for the next
passenger.
The person sitting in that position
could be badly injured. After reinstalling the seat
cushion, always check to be sure that the safety
belts are properly routed and are not twisted.

3.
Buckle the center passenger position safety belt, and
then route the safety belts through the proper slots in
the seat cushion. Don’t let the safety belt get twisted.
Slide the rear of the cushion up and under the
seatback
so the rear locating guides hook into the
wire loops on the back frame.
With the seat cushion lowered, push rearward and
then press down on the seat cushion until the spring
locks on both ends engage.
4. Check to make sure the safety belts are properly
routed and that
no portion of any safety belt is
trapped under the seat. Also make sure the seat
cushion is secured.
Rear Compartment Fuse Blocks
Once the seat is removed,
you’ll find two
fuse panels
on the driver’s side of the
battery. Each is protected by
a plastic box with four tabs.
Pull up on all four tabs at
the same time to loosen
them and pull off the box.
Of these two panels, the cover on the passenger’s side
fuse panel has an extra plastic cap attachment. You’ll
need
to slide this out of the grooves which hold it there
before removing the rest of the box.
To replace the covers, line the four tabs up and simply
snap them back into place. The extra plastic cap
attachment slides back into place.
