CHANGING A FUSE
Note: Jaguar recommend that owners do not
remove or replace rela ys. It is recommended
that you seek qualified assistance in the event
of a rela y failure.
Always switch off the i gnition and the affected
electrical circuit, be fore replacing a fuse.
Fuse failure is identifi ed by an inoperative
circuit.
A special tool for remo ving and replacing Mini
fuses is provided in the engine compartment
fuse box, together with spare fuses. Two types of fuses are fitted in the fuse boxes:

Mini-type
2. J-Case
If a spare fuse is used, renew it (or have it
renewed) with a fuse of the same amperage
rating.
Push the tool onto the suspect fuse and
withdraw it.
If the wire in the fuse is broken, the fuse has
blown.
Fit a new fuse using the tool.
Checking or renewing a blown fuse
J-Case fuses ( 2) and relays should only be
replaced by a qualified technician.
Fuses are colour coded according to the
amperage and the rating is also marked on
each fuse.
CAUTIONS
Always turn off the ignition system and
the affected electrical circuit, before
replacing a fuse.
Fit Jaguar approved replacement fuses
of the same rating and type, or fuses of
matching specification. Using an incorrect
fuse may result in damage to the vehicle's
electrical system, and can result in a fire.
No attempt should be made to repair a
fuse that has blown.
If the replacement fuse blows after
installation, the system should be
checked by your Dealer /Authorised Repairer.
