2005 DODGE STRATUS COUPE lock

Fuse block
To prevent damage to the electrical system due to short-
circuiting or overloading, each individual circuit is pro-
vided with a fuse. There are fuse blocks in the passenger
compartment and in the engine compartment.
The fuse block in the passenger compartment is located on
the driver's side at the position shown in the illustration.
In the engine compartment, the fuse block is located as
shown in the illustration.
FUSIBLE LINKS
Fusible links will melt to prevent a fire in the event that
a large current flows through a system protected by a
fusible link. In case of a melted fusible link, see your
authorized dealer for inspection and replacement.
