your vehicle. The VIN also appears on the Vehicle
Certication and Service Parts labels and the
certicates of title and registration.

code. This code will help you identify your vehicle’s
engine, specications, and replacement parts.

box. It is very helpful if you ever need to order
parts. On this label, you will nd the following:

Electrical System
Add-On Electrical Equipment
Notice:Do not add anything electrical to your
vehicle unless you check with your dealer rst.
Some electrical equipment can damage your
vehicle and the damage would not be covered
by your warranty. Some add-on electrical
equipment can keep other components from
working as they should.
Add-on equipment can drain your vehicle’s
battery, even if your vehicle is not operating.
Your vehicle has an airbag system. Before
attempting to add anything electrical to your
vehicle, seeServicing Your Airbag-Equipped
Vehicle on page 92.
Windshield Wiper Fuses
The windshield wiper motor is protected by an
internal circuit breaker and a fuse. If the motor
overheats due to heavy snow, etc., the wiper will
stop until the motor cools. If the overload is
caused by some electrical problem, have it xed.
Power Windows and Other Power
Options
Fuses in the fuse block protect the power windows.
When the current load is too heavy, the fuse opens
protecting the circuit until the problem is xed.
Fuses
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected
from short circuits by a combination of fuses,
circuit breakers and fusible links. This greatly
reduces the chance of damage 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 to replace a bad fuse with a new one
of the identical size and rating.
There are three fuse blocks in your vehicle: one
in the center of the instrument panel, one in
the engine compartment and one in the trunk.
There is a fuse puller located on the instrument
panel fuse block. It can be used to easily remove
fuses from the fuse block.

Instrument Panel Fuse Block
The instrument panel fuse block is located on the passenger’s side of the vehicle, on the lower portion of
the instrument panel console near the oor.
Remove the console cover to access the fuse block, then remove the fuse block cover to access the fuses.
Your vehicle may not be equipped with all the fuses and features listed.

however, despite the best intentions of all
concerned, misunderstandings can occur. If your
concern has not been resolved to your
satisfaction, the following steps should be taken:

of dealership management. Normally, concerns
can be quickly resolved at that level. If the matter

further help, in the U.S., contact the Pontiac

Motors of Canada Customer Communication
Centre in Oshawa by calling 1-800-263-3777
