Most of your vehicle’s electrical components are fused
wit h s afety f us es. Wit h t he exc eption o f t he b rake lights ,
all individual lighting system components are
electronically fused. Before replacing a blown safety
fuse, determine the cause of the short circuit. Always
observe amperage and color of fuse.
The circuit for components is protected by a cycled
circuit breaker interrupted if too much current is being
drawn. The circuit closes automatically after a short
time; the circuit is broken again if the malfunction
reoccurs.
Always use a n ew f use for r eplacem en t. Never attempt to
repair or bridge a blown fuse.
