- Switch off the ignition and the electrical component
affected.
Carefully pry the face cover off the instrument panel
using the ignition key or a screwdriver~ fig . 223 . -
Check the fuse listing on the next pages to find out which
fuse belongs to the component which has failed
~ page 301 , "Fuse list".
- Remove the blown fuse with the plast ic clip provided.
The clip is located on the holder in the fuse box.
- Replace a blown fuse (recognizable by the melted metal
strip inside) w ith a fuse of the
some amperage.
- Firmly snap the cover back onto the instrument panel
face.
The various electrical circuits are protected by fuses . The fuses a re
clustered in a centralized unit. The unit is located behind the face
panel at the end of the instrument panel.
Two spare fuses and a sticker identifying the fus es are located on
the inside of the fuse box cover.
& WARNING
Never replace a fuse with one that has a higher amperage rating.
• A fuse with a too high amperage could damage the electrical
part and cause a fire.
(D Note
• On no account should fuses be repaired (e.g . patched up with tin
foil or wire) as this may caus e se rious damage elsewhere in the elec ­
trical circuit or cause fire.
• If a fuse blows repeatedly, do not keep replacing it. Instead, have
the cause for the repeated short circuit or overload tracked and
fixed. _,,
