If you ever have a problem on the road and don't have
a spare fuse, you can borrow one that has the same
amperage. Just pick some feature of your vehicle
that you can get along withoutÐ like the radio or
cigarette lighterÐand use its fuse, if it is the correct
amperage. Replace it as soon as you can.
