Underhood Fuse Block
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination of fuses. This greatly
reduces the chance of res caused by electrical
problems.
Look at the silver-colored band inside the fuse. If the
band is broken or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure you
replace a bad fuse with a new one of the identical
size and rating.
