If you cannot drive the vehicle

do not have a spare fuse, take a fuse
of the same rating or a lower rating
f rom one of the other circuits. Make

power socket or radio).
If you replace the blown f use with a
spare f use that has a lower rating, it
might blow out again. This does not
indicate anything wrong. Replace the
f use with one of the correct rating assoon as you can. If the replacement fuse of the
same rating blows in a short time,
there is probably a serious
electrical problem with your
