Electrical System
Electrical System
Overload
The vehicle has fuses and circuit
breakers to protect against an
electrical system overload.
When the current electrical load is
too heavy, the circuit breaker opens
and closes, protecting the circuit until
the until the current load returns to
normal or the problem is fixed. This
greatly reduces the chance of circuit
overload and fire caused by electrical
problems. Fuses and circuit breakers protect
the following in the vehicle:
•Headlamp Wiring
•Windshield Wiper Motor
•Power Windows and other Power
Accessories
Headlamp Wiring
An electrical overload may cause
the lamps to go on and off, or in
some cases to remain off. Have
the headlamp wiring checked right
away if the lamps go on and off or
remain off.
