Inspecting and Changing Fuses
1.
Turn off the
vehicle, including the headlights and
all accessories.
2.

R
emove the fuse box cover.
3.

Check all
fuses inside the combined fuse case in
the engine compartment. If any fuse is blown,
use a Phillips-head screwdriver to remove the
screw and replace the fuse with a new one.
4.

Inspect
the small fuses in the engine
compartment and the vehicle interior. If there is
a burned out fuse, remove it with the fuse puller
and replace it with a new one.
Replacing a fuse with one that has a higher rating greatly increases the chances
of damaging the electrical system.
