Underhood Fuse BlockThe underhood fuse block is located on the driver's side
of the vehicle near the battery. Lift the cover for access
to the fuse/relay block.
You will see fuses to the top right of the fuse center
block once you remove the cover. These are spare fuses
and can be used accordingly.
You can remove fuses with a fuse extractor. The fuse
extractor is located in the underhood fuse block. To
remove fuses if you don't have a fuse extractor, hold the
end of the fuse between your thumb and index finger
and pull straight out.
See ªEngine Compartment Overviewº in the Index for
more information on location.
