G200B02A-AATReplacing Accessory FuseThe fuse box for the lights and other electrical
accessories will be found low on the dashboard
on the driver’s side. Inside the box you will find
a list showing the circuits protected by each
fuse.
If any of your car’s lights or other electrical
accessories stop working, a blown fuse could
be the reason. If the fuse has burned out, you
will see that the metal strip inside the fuse has
burned through. If you suspect a blown fuse,
follow this procedure:

CHECKING AND REPLACING
FUSESG200A01GK-AATReplacing a Fusible LinkA fusible link will melt if the electrical circuits from
the battery are ever overloaded, thus prevent-
ing damage to the entire wiring harness. (This
could be caused by a short in the system
drawing too much current.) If this ever happens,
have a Hyundai dealer determine the cause,
repair the system and replace the fusible link.
The fusible links are located in a relay box(2.0L
)or below the positive (+) post cover of the
battery (2.7L) for easy inspection.

!
CAUTION:
When replacing a fusible link, never use
anything but a new fusible link with the
same or lower amperage rating. Never use
a piece of wire or a higher-rated fusible link.
This could result in serious damage and
create a fire hazard.
