Replacing fuses
If an  electrical component  fails to function, it is possible that a  fuse has blown due  to a  temporary circuit overload.
Fuses are located in different  places:
A - Relays/fuse box in the engine compartment
B - Fuse box in the passenger  compartment
C - Relays/fuse box in the cargo area
A label  on the inside of each cover indicates the amperage  and  the electrical components that are connected to each
fuse.
The easiest way to see if a  fuse is blown is to remove it. Pull the fuse straight out. If a  fuse is difficult to remove, you
will find a  special fuse removal tool in the passenger  compartment fuse box. From the side, examine the curved metal
wire to see if it is broken. If so, put in a  new fuse of the same color and amperage (written on the fuse). Spare fuses
are stored  in the fuse box in the passenger  compartment. If fuses burn out repeatedly, have the electrical system
inspected by an  authorized Volvo retailer.
WARNING!
Never  use fuses with higher amperage  that those stated on the following pages. Doing so could overload the car's
electrical system.

Relays/fuses in the engine compartment
When replacing fuses, be  sure to replace  a  blown fuse with a  new one  of the same color and  amperage  (written on the
fuse). Fuse amperage  is also indicated on the inside of the fuse box cover.
