Electrical System

Overload
Electrical System
Following the after-delivery service,
it is the owner's responsibility to
check all wiring periodically for
cracked, chafed or oil-soaked
insulation and maintain it in a clean
and tight condition to ensure
satisfactory operation of the
electrical system.
Replacing the Fuses and Relays
Your vehicle is equipped with fuses
and fusible links to protect your
electrical wiring and equipment in
case of electrical overload.
When the lights do not come on or
flash, or the equipment in the
electrical system does not operate,
check to see if a fuse has blown. Fuses :
In case of an electrical
overload, the fuse will blow and stop
the flow of current in the circuit
before electrical components
become damaged.
The cause of the circuit overload
must be identified and corrected
before the blown fuse is replaced,
or else the new fuse will also blow.
Since different circuits handle
different amounts of current, fuses
of various ampere ratings are used.
Be sure to replace a blown fuse with
a fuse of the correct rating.
To know if a fuse is blown or not,
remove the suspected fuse and look
at the wire for a break. If the wire is
broken, replace the fuse with one of
equal amperage rating.
The amperage rating of each fuse is
molded in its head.
Fuses are installed in the fuse
panel.

11 FUEL HEATER When Slow-blow Fuses Blow Out
Slow-blow fuses protect the
electrical circuits, and they are
installed so that they can be quickly
replaced if there is a malfunction.
If an overload exists in the circuit
from the battery, the slow-blow fuse
will blow out before the wiring
harness is damaged to protect the
electrical circuitry. InspectionWhen the headlights and other
devices in the electrical system do
not work, but there is no problem
with the fuses, check the
slow-blow fuse.
The slow-blow fuse is blown if it
looks like the illustration.
Immediately contact the nearest
dealer.

the negative (–) terminal which
is grounded (attached to the
engine block, or frame rail).
2. Position the vehicle with the good (charged) battery so that
the booster (jumper) cables will
reach. But never let the
vehicles touch. Also, be sure
the booster cables to be used
do not have loose or missing
insulation.
3. In both vehicles, turn off the ignition (engine control) switch
and all lights and accessories
except the hazard flasher or
any lights needed for the work
area. In both vehicles, apply
the parking brake firmly and
move the selector lever to the
"P" position.
4. Unlatch the latches (1) and
remove the battery cover (2)
and connect the jumper cables
in the numbered sequence in
the drawing below. Make sure
the cable clamps do not touch
any other metal parts. Make sure the cables are not
on or near pulleys, fans or
other parts that will move when
the engine is started.
When it is difficult to start the
engine in a cold area, first start
the engine of the vehicle with
the booster battery or batteries
and a few minutes after that
start the engine of the disabled
vehicle.

3. No vehicle should ever betowed over 88 km/h (55 mph).
4. Loose or protruding parts of damaged vehicles should be
secured prior to moving.
5. A safety chain system completely independent of the
primary lifting and towing
attachment must be used.
6. Operators should refrain from going under a vehicle which is
being lifted by the towing
equipment unless the vehicle is
adequately supported by safety
stands.
7. No towing operation which for any reason jeopardizes the
safety of the wrecker operator
or any bystanders or other
motorists should be attempted.Appearance Care
Exterior Care
Exterior Finish
The paint finish on your vehicle
provides beauty, depth of color,
gloss retention and durability.
While cleaning the vehicle, do not
grip the roof marker lights to prevent
damage or water leakage.
Washing
The best way to preserve your
vehicle's finish is to keep it clean by
washing it often.
Wash the vehicle in lukewarm or
cold water. Do not use hot water or
wash your vehicle in the direct rays
of the sun. Do not use strong soap
or chemical detergents. All cleaning
agents should be flushed promptly
from the surface and not allowed to
dry on the finish.
These vehicles are designed to
operate under normal environmental
conditions to withstand natural
elements. However, unusual conditions such as high-pressure
car washers may cause water to
enter inside the vehicle. If the
vehicle is operated with foreign
material adhering to the exterior,
this material may react chemically
with paint, resulting in staining,
discoloration, rusting or corrosion of
components. Also, the material may
become trapped within mechanical
components, adversely affecting
their functions or forming an
aerodynamic resistance. In the
following cases, therefore, the
vehicle must be washed and all
foreign matter removed.
.
When soot, iron powder, dead
bugs, bird droppings, tree sap or
oily matter from coal tar and
smoke has adhered to painted
surfaces.
. When the vehicle has been
driven in coastal areas.
. When the vehicle has been
driven on roads where road
chemicals have been applied.
. When a large amount of mud or
dirt has adhered to the exterior.

310 Vehicle Care
The application of wax to rubber
component surfaces can result in
permanent whitening.
Wax must not be applied to the
windshield. Failure to observe this
precaution can result in irregular
reflection of light, impairing
your view.
Protecting Exterior Bright Metal
Parts
Bright metal parts should be
cleaned regularly to keep their
luster. Washing with water is all that
is usually needed.
Use special care with aluminum
trim. To avoid damaging protective
trim, never use auto or chrome
polish, steam or caustic soap to
clean aluminum. A coating of wax,
rubbed to a high polish, is
recommended for all bright metal
parts.
Weatherstrip Lubrication
All weatherstrips should be
periodically lubricated (minimum of
every 6 months) with a weatherstrip
lubricant. A thin film of weatherstriplubricant should be applied using a
clean cloth. Weatherstrip lubricant
application will lengthen
weatherstrip life, help sealing, and
assist in eliminating squeaks.
Windshield Care
Wax must not be applied to the
windshield. A layer of wax can
impair your view in rainy weather
and can also lead to rough
movements of the windshield wiper.
If engine oil or grease comes into
contact with the windshield, staining
or discoloration may result. It must
be immediately cleaned away.
If not fully cleaned by the windshield
wipers, the windshield should be
cleaned using glass cleaner. If your
windshield is not clear after using
the windshield washer, or if the
wiper blade chatters when running,
wax or other material may be on the
blade or windshield.
The windshield wipers on your truck
can be pulled out from the
windshield to provide easier access
for cleaning.
Clean the outside of the windshield
with a non-abrasive cleaner. Your
windshield is clean if beads do not
form when rinsing with water. Clean
the blade by wiping with a cloth
soaked in a solution of one-half
water and one-half methanol
alcohol. Then rinse the blade with
water.
The windshield wiper arms may be
swung out, away from the glass, to
provide easy access for cleaning.
Do not hang on to the roof marker
lights while cleaning the windshield
or damage may occur (resulting in
possible water leakage).
External Diesel Engine
Cleaning
The engine does not need periodic
cleaning, nor is it recommended.
If you insist on cleaning the engine,
clean it only when it is cold, never
when it is warm or hot, and never
when the engine is running.
Spraying or pouring water or other
fluids on your engine when it is
warm or hot, or when it is running,
