2004 DODGE INTREPID fuse

Turn Signals
The arrows on each side of the instrument cluster flash to
show operation of the front and rear turn signal lights. If
either light flashes at an extremely fast rate, check for a
defective outside light bulb. If both of the indicators fail
to light when the lever is moved, it would suggest that
the fuse or indicator bulbs are defective.
Headlight Dimmer Switch
Pull the multi-function control lever toward the steering
wheel to switch the headlights from high or low beam.
Passing Light
You can signal another vehicle with your headlights by
lightly pulling the multi-function lever toward the steer-
ing wheel. This will cause the headlights to turn on at
high beam and remain on until the lever is released.
Windshield Wipers And Washers
The wipers and washers are operated by a switch in the
control lever. Turn the end of the handle to select the
desired wiper speed.To use the washer, push the knob in when spray is
desired. If the button is pushed while in the delay range,
the wiper will operate for several seconds after the knob
is released, and then resume the intermittent interval.
If the button is pushed and held while in the OFF
position, the wiper will operate for several wipes then
turn off.
If the button is pushed while in the OFF position, the
wipers will cycle twice.

Outside Temperature
Because engine temperature can increase the displayed
temperature, temperature readings are slowly updated
when vehicle speed is below 20 MPH (30 km/h).
ELECTRICAL POWER OUTLET
Your vehicle may be equipped with a power outlet. This
is located in the center of the instrument panel if your
vehicle has bench or split bench seats. Accessories pow-
ered through this outlet are protected by a 15 amp fuse.
The outlet may be converted to a cigar lighter by install-
ing the dealer obtained smoker’s package. The outlet is
operated by the ignition switch, when in the “run” or
“acc” positions only. You may convert the outlet from
ignition to battery power by performing the following:
•Remove the fuse cover from the left end of the
instrument panel (see the paragraph on fuses in sec-
tion 7 of this manual.)
•Remove fuse #6 (its on the upper right of the fuse
block) from its “IGN” position.
•Move the fuse slightly right and insert it in the fuse #6
“BAT” location in the fuse block.
•Reinstall the fuse cover.

Cleaning Plastic Instrument Cluster Lenses
The lenses in front of the instruments in this vehicle are
molded in clear plastic. When cleaning the lenses, care
must be taken to avoid scratching the plastic.
•Clean with a wet soft rag. A mild soap solution may be
used, but do not use high alcohol content or abrasive
cleaners. If soap is used, wipe clean with a clean damp
rag.
•Dry with a soft tissue.
Seat Belt Maintenance
Do not bleach, dye or clean the belts with chemical
solvents or abrasive cleaners. This will weaken the fabric.
If the belts need cleaning, use a mild soap solution or
lukewarm water. Do not remove the belts from the
vehicle to wash them.
Replace the belts if they appear frayed or worn or if the
buckles do not work properly.
FUSES
The fuse block is behind the end cover at the left side of
the instrument panel. Pull the cover straight away from
the instrument panel for access to the fuses.
Fuse Block Relays
The location and identification of fuse block relays can be
found on the inside of the instrument panel end cover.

Underhood Fuses
A Power Distribution center is located in the engine
compartment. This center contains fuses and relays for
circuits that operate only under the hood. A label which
identifies these components is located on the underside
of the cover.CAUTION!
When replacing a blown fuse, it is important to use
only a fuse having the correct amperage rating. The
use of a fuse with a rating other than indicated may
result in a dangerous electrical system overload. If a
properly rated fuse continues to blow, it indicates a
problem in the circuit that must be corrected.
