Fuse replacement

182)
1. Before replacing a fuse, always turn
off the electrical circuit concerned and
place the ignition switch in the “LOCK”
position or put the operation mode in
OFF.
2. Remove the fuse puller (A) from the
inside of the fuse block in the engine
compartment.
3. Referring to the fuse load capacity
table, check the fuse pertaining to the
problem.B. Fuse is OK
C. Blown fuse
NOTE If any system does not function
but the fuse corresponding to that
system is normal, there may be a fault
in the system elsewhere. We
recommend you to have your vehicle
checked.
4. Insert a new fuse of the same
capacity by using the fuse puller into
the same place at the fuse block.
WARNING
344)Never replace a fuse with another
with a higher amp rating; DANGER OF
FIRE. If a general protection fuse
(MEGA-FUSE, MIDI-FUSE) is activated,
contact a Fiat Dealership.
345)If the newly inserted fuse blows again
after a short time, we recommend you to
have the electrical system checked to find
the cause and rectify it.
346)Never use a fuse with a larger
capacity than specified or a substitute
(such as a cable or foil). Doing so could
cause the circuit wires to overheat and
create a fire.
347)Never replace a blown fuse with metal
wires or other material.
348)Before replacing a fuse, make sure
that the ignition key has been removed and
that all the other services are switched off
and/or disengaged.
349)If a general protection fuse for safety
systems (airbag system, braking system),
power unit systems (engine system,
transmission system) or steering system
blows, contact a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT
182)If it is necessary to wash the engine
compartment, take care not to directly hit
the fuse box and the window wiper motor
with the water jet

exhaust gas leakage
Look under the body of your vehicle to
check for fuel, engine coolant, oil and
exhaust gas leaks.
Exterior and interior lamp operation
Operate the combination lamp switch
to check that all lamps are functioning
properly. If the lamps do not illuminate,
the probable cause is a blown fuse or
defective lamp bulb. Check the fuses
first. If there is no blown fuses, check
the lamp bulbs. For information
regarding the inspection and
replacement of the fuses and the bulbs,
refer to “Fuses” and “Replacement of
lamp bulbs”.
Meter, gauge and indicator/
warning lamps operation
Start the engine to check the operation
of all instruments, gauges, and indicator
and warning lamps. If there is anything
wrong, we recommend you to have
your vehicle inspected.
Hinges and latches lubrication
Check all latches and hinges, and, if
necessary, have them lubricated.
