Doing Your Own Service Work
{CAUTION:
You can be injured and your vehicle could
be damaged if you try to do service work
on a vehicle without knowing enough
about it.
Be sure you have sufficient knowledge,
experience, the proper replacement
parts, and tools before you attempt any
vehicle maintenance task.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)

Be sure to use the proper nuts, bolts,
and other fasteners. English and
metric fasteners can be easily
confused. If you use the wrong
fasteners, parts can later break or fall
off. You could be hurt.
If you want to do some of your own service work,
you will want to use the proper service manual.
It tells you much more about how to service your
vehicle than this manual can. To order the
proper service manual, seeService Publications
Ordering Information on page 511.
Your vehicle has an airbag system. Before
attempting to do your own service work, see
Servicing Your Airbag-Equipped Vehicle on
page 78.
You should keep a record with all parts receipts
and list the mileage and the date of any service
work you perform. SeeMaintenance Record
on page 487.

Notice:If you leave your radio or other
accessories on during the jump starting
procedure, they could be damaged. The repairs
would not be covered by your warranty.
Always turn off your radio and other
accessories when jump starting your vehicle.
3. Turn off the ignition on both vehicles.
Unplug unnecessary accessories plugged into
the cigarette lighter or the accessory power
outlet. Turn off the radio and all lamps that are
not needed. This will avoid sparks and help
save both batteries. And it could save
the radio!
4. Open the hood on the other vehicle and
locate the positive (+) and negative (−)
terminal locations on that vehicle.
You will not use your vehicle’s battery for jump
starting. It has a remote positive (+) jump
starting terminal, located on the underhood
fuse block, for that purpose.If your vehicle has one
of the 3800 V6 engines,
to uncover the remote
positive (+) terminal,
press the tab at
the bottom of the fuse
block and lift the
cover up.

If your vehicle has the
5.3L V8 engine, to
uncover the remote
positive (+) terminal,
remove the fuse
block cover.
Always use the remote positive (+) terminal
instead of the positive (+) terminal on the
battery. SeeEngine Compartment Overview
on page 346for more information on location.
{CAUTION:
An electric fan can start up even when the
engine is not running and can injure you.
Keep hands, clothing and tools away from
any underhood electric fan.
{CAUTION:
Fans or other moving engine parts can
injure you badly. Keep your hands away
from moving parts once the engine is
running.

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 78.
Headlamp Wiring
The headlamp circuit is protected by individual
fuses in the underhood fuse block. An electrical
overload will cause the fuse to blow. If this
happens, have the headlamp system checked
right away.
Windshield Wiper Fuses
The windshield wiper motor is protected by a
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
Circuit breakers in the fuse panel protect the
power windows and other power accessories.
When the current load is too heavy, the circuit
breaker opens and closes, protecting the circuit
until the problem is xed.
459

Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in the vehicle are protected
from short circuits by a combination of fuses,
circuit breakers and fusible thermal links in the
wiring itself. 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 to replace a bad fuse with a new one of
the identical size and rating. Spare fuses and
a fuse puller are located in the underhood
fuse block. SeeUnderhood Fuse Blocklater in
this section.
Instrument Panel Fuse Block
Some fuses are in a
fuse block located on
the end of the
instrument panel on the
passenger side.
To get to the fuse block lift up on the side panel.
A fuse usage chart is on the inside of this
panel.
