FUSE SPECIFICATION CHART
Pre-Fuse Box
The pre-fuse box is in the engine
compartment attached to the positive
battery post. This box contains several high
current fuses. If you need to replace one
of these high current fuses, see an
authorized dealer.
Power Distribution Box
WARNING: Always disconnect the
battery before servicing high current fuses. WARNING:
To reduce risk of
electrical shock, always replace the cover
to the power distribution box before
reconnecting the battery or refilling fluid
reservoirs.
The power distribution box is in the engine
compartment. It has high-current fuses
that protect your vehicle's main electrical
systems from overloads.
You will need to reset some features if you
disconnect and reconnect the battery. See
Changing the 12V Battery
(page 255). Lift the release lever at the rear of the cover
to remove it.
