Additional fuses in cargo compartment
(XC90 Executive*)If an electrical component fails to function, it is
possible that a fuse has blown.
The fuse boxes are located in four different
places, see the illustration above.
A label on the inside of each cover indicates the
amperage and the electrical components that
are connected to each fuse.
The easiest way to see if a fuse is blown is to
remove it. Pull the fuse straight out. If a fuse is
difficult to remove, you will find a special fuse
removal tool (and several extra fuses) in the
passenger compartment fuse box on the driv-er's end of dashboard. From the side, examine
the curved metal wire (see the illustration) to
see if it is broken. If so, put in a new fuse of the
same color and amperage (written on the
fuse). Spare fuses are stored in the fuse box in
the engine compartment and the passenger
compartment. If fuses burn out repeatedly,
have the electrical system inspected by a
trained and qualified Volvo service technician.
