Inspecting and Changing Fuses NOTICE Replacing a fuse with one that has a higher rating
greatly increases the chances of damaging the
electrical system. If you do not have a replacement
fuse with the proper rating for the circuit, install
one with a lower rating.
Replace fuse with a spare fuse of the same specified
amperage.
Confirm the specified amperage using the charts on

new one.
