Electrical System
Add-On Electrical Equipment
NOTICE:
Don't add anything electrical to your vehicle
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.
Headlamp Wiring
The headlamp wiring is protected by a circuit breaker in
the light switch. An electrical overload will cause the
lights to go on and off, or in some cases to remain off.
If this happens, have your headlamp wiring checked
right away.
Windshield Wiper Fuses
The windshield wiper motor is protected by a circuit
breaker inside the motor and a circuit breaker in the fuse
block. If the motor overheats, the wipers will stop until
the motor cools. If the overload is caused by an
electrical problem, be sure to get it fixed.
Fusible Links
A fusible link is a short piece of wire several gage sizes
smaller than the circuit it protects. It will melt in an
overload situation, opening the circuit.
Your starter relay and other circuits have these fusible
links. The size is printed on the insulation. If the insulation
is burned beyond recognition, consult your GM dealer for
the proper size. Replace a fusible link with one of the
same size and insulation type. Fusible link insulation is a
special purpose high
-temperature material.
The hydraulic brake booster motor feed circuit and
starter relay circuit are protected by a fusible link.
Vehicles with a diesel engine have a fusible link for the
intake heater feed circuit. Vehicles equipped with an
electronically controlled diesel engine also have a
fusible link for the engine control unit.
