Fuses
Checking and Replacing Fuses
If something electrical in your car stops working, the first thing you
should check for is a blown fuse.
Determine from the chart on pages 275 and 276, or the diagram on the
fuse box lid, which fuse or fuses control that component. Check those
fuses first, but check all the fuses
before deciding that a blown fuse is not the cause. Replace any blown
fuses and check the component's operation.
1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0). Make sure the headlights and
all other accessories are off.
2. Remove the cover from the fuse box.
BLOWN
3. Check each of the large fuses inthe under-hood fuse box by
looking through the top at the wireinside. Removing these fuses
requires a Phillips-head screw- driver.
FUSE PULLER
4. Check the smaller fuses in the under-hood fuse box and all the
fuses in the interior fuse boxes by
pulling out each fuse with the fuse
puller provided in the under-hood
fuse box.
