Fuses – introduction
The fuses help protect the vehicle's electrical components from overloading.
There are relay/fuseboxes located in the engine compartment, the passenger compartment andthe trunk. If an electrical component fails to function, this may be due to a blown fuse. The easiest way tosee if a fuse is blown is to remove it. To do so:
1. Pull the fuse straight out. If a fuse is difficult to remove, a special fuse removal tool is
located on the inside of the engine com- partment fusebox cover .
2. From the side, examine the curved metal wire in the fuse to see if it is intact.
If the wire is broken, insert a new fuse of thesame color and amperage (written on the fuse). If fuses burn out repeatedly, have the electrical system inspected by a trained and qualified Volvoservice technician.
WARNING
Never use metal objects or fuses with higher amperage than those stated on the followingpages. Doing so could seriously damage oroverload the vehicle's electrical system.
