3. Turn the knobs counterclockwise andlower the fuse block.
4. Locate the position of the suspected
fuse by using the chart inside the fuse
block cover.
5. Pull the fuse straight out with the fuse puller provided on the inside of the
engine compartment fuse block cover.
6. Inspect the fuse and replace it if it'sblown.
Normal Blown
7. Insert a new fuse of the same amperage
rating, and make sure it fits tightly. If it
does not fit tightly, have an expert
install it. We recommend an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
If you have no spare fuses, borrow one
of the same rating from a circuit not
essential to vehicle operation, such as
the MIRROR or CIGAR circuit.
CAUTION
Always replace a fuse with one of the
same rating. Otherwise you may
damage the electric system.
Replacing the fuses under the hood
If the headlights or other electrical
components do not work and the fuses in
the cabin are normal, inspect the fuse
block under the hood. If a fuse is blown, it
must be replaced. Follow these steps:
1. Turn off the ignition switch and allother switches.
