Electrical System
High Voltage Devices and
Wiring
{Warning
Exposure to high voltage can
cause shock, burns, and even
death. The high voltage
components in the vehicle can
only be serviced by technicians
with special training.
High voltage components are
identified by labels. Do not
remove, open, take apart,
or modify these components.
High voltage cable or wiring has
orange covering or labels. Do not
probe, tamper with, cut, or modify
high voltage cable or wiring.
Electrical System
Overload
The vehicle has fuses and circuit
breakers to protect against an
electrical system overload.

10122739) - 2017 - CRC - 10/3/16
264 Vehicle Care
When the current electrical load is
too heavy, the circuit breaker opens
and closes, protecting the circuit
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
Replace a bad fuse with a new one
of the identical size and rating.
If there is a problem on the road and
a fuse needs to be replaced, the
same amperage fuse can be
borrowed. Choose some feature of
the vehicle that is not needed to use
and replace it as soon as possible.
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.
Windshield Wipers
If the wiper motor overheats due to
heavy snow or ice, the windshield
wipers will stop until the motor cools
and the wiper control is turned off.
After removal of the blockage, the
wiper motor will restart when the
control is then moved to the desired
operating position.
Although the circuit is protected
from electrical overload, overload
due to heavy snow or ice, may
cause wiper damage. Always clear
ice and heavy snow from the
windshield before using the
windshield wipers.
If the overload is caused by an
electrical problem and not snow or
ice, be sure to get it fixed.
Underhood Compartment
Fuse Block
To open the fuse block cover, press
the clips at the side and back and
pull the cover up.
Caution
Spilling liquid on any electrical
component on the vehicle may
damage it. Always keep the
covers on any electrical
component.

Drive Motor Battery Coverage
Propulsion Battery Warranty
Policy (Bolt EV)
Like all batteries, the amount of
energy that the high voltage
“propulsion” battery can store will
decrease with time and miles
driven. Depending on use, the
battery may degrade as little as
10% to as much as 40% of capacity
over the warranty period. If there
are questions pertaining to battery
capacity, a dealer service technician
could determine if the vehicle is
within parameters. Repair (If Necessary)
Chevrolet has a network of certified
dealers who are trained to perform
repairs on Bolt EV if your vehicle
needs battery service.
Replace (If Necessary)
If warranty repair requires
replacement, the high voltage
battery may be replaced with either
a new or factory refurbished high
voltage battery with an energy
capacity (kWh storage) level at or
within approximately 10% of that of
the original battery at the time of
warranty repair.
Your Electric Propulsion battery
warranty replacement may not
return your vehicle to an
“as new”
condition, but it will make your
vehicles fully operational
appropriate to its age and mileage.
