FUSES IN THE ENGINE
COMPARTMENT
The main fuse, primary fuses and some of
the individual fuses are located in the en-
gine compartment. If the main fuse blows,
no electrical component will function. If
a primary fuse blows, no electrical com-
ponent in the corresponding load group
will function. When replacing the main
fuse, a primary fuse or an individual fuse,
use a genuine Fiat replacement.
60G111
OK
BLOWN
If the main fuse or a primary
fuse blows, be sure to have
your vehicle inspected by an autho-
rized Fiat Dealership. Always use a
genuine Fiat replacement. Never use
a substitute such as a wire even for a
temporary repair, or extensive elec-
trical damage and a fire can result.
WARNING
FUSES
Your vehicle has three types of fuses, as
described below:
Main fuse
The main fuse takes current directly from
the battery.
Primary fuses
These fuses are between the main fuse and
individual fuses, and are for electrical load
groups.
Individual fuses
These fuses are for individual electrical cir-
cuits.
To remove a fuse, use the fuse puller pro-
vided in the fuse box. The amperage of
each fuse is shown in the back of the fuse
box cover.

NOTE Make sure that the fuse box always
carries spare fuses.
