64 Instruments and Controls
Brake Low Vacuum Warning
Light
This light should come on briefly
when the engine control switch is
turned to the ON position, and then
should go out after the engine is
started. If the light does not come
on when the engine control switch is
turned to ON, it could indicate a
burned out bulb or a blown fuse.
Have the system repaired if the light
does not come on during this check.
The warning light and buzzer will
come on simultaneously when the
brake booster’s vacuum or pressure
becomes insufficient either during
driving or when the engine control
switch is in the ON position, or when
there is an abnormality in the
charging system, such as an
alternator malfunction or loosening
or splitting of the fan belt or whenever the hydraulic brake
booster (HBB) becomes faulty. The
warning buzzer will stop sounding
when the parking brake is engaged.
On 4500HD and 4500XD, the brake
low vacuum warning light and
warning buzzer should come on to
indicate low vacuum reserve for
brake power assist. At the same
time, the Back up Electric Vacuum
Pump operates.
(5500HD, 5500XD models) When
the HBB pressure is low, and/or the
HBB fluid (Dexron
–VI) level is low,
the light and warning buzzer should
come on. Do not use brake fluid in
the brake booster reservoir. Use
only Dexron –VI ATF.
If this happens while driving:
. Do not pump the brakes. The
system is designed to stop the
truck with reserve power assist if
the pedal is held down. This
reserve is greatly reduced each
time you apply and release the
brakes.
. Stopping distance may be
longer. .
You may have to push much
harder on the brake pedal.
. Have the vehicle repaired before
you continue driving.
The buzzer stops when the selector
lever is shifted to the P position.
{Warning
Do not drive while the buzzer
sounds as the brakes are not
operating to their full capacity.
You and others could be seriously
injured.

lever is held up or down. The lever
moves back to neutral as soon as it
is released.
A green light on the instrument
panel is designed to flash to tell you
that the front and rear turn signal
lights are working. If the light stays
on, but does not flash, check for a
burned-out turn signal bulb. If the
green light does not come on when
you move the lever, check the fuse
and indicator bulb.
Either of these indicator lights
flashes when the turn signal switch
is operated with the engine control
switch in the ON position.
Cornering Lamps

chock the wheels. It would be very
dangerous if the vehicle started
to move.
When performing work on the
electrical system, begin by turning
the engine control switch to the
"LOCK" position, wait at least
3 minutes, and then disconnect the
negative cable from the negative
terminal on battery. If the negative
cable is disconnected within
3 minutes, the engine control
module may malfunction.
When working on the fuel line or
fuel filter, remove the fuel tank filler
cap. The fuel system is under
pressure and the fuel will overspill
unless the pressure is relieved,
possibly leading to combustion or
a fire.
Do not make engine adjustments
yourself. Be sure to consult your
dealer.
Use only appropriate tools.
Oils, brake fluid and engine coolant
have lubrication, cooling and rust
prevention functions. If these liquids
deteriorate through loss orcontamination, it will cause a
decline in the performance of the
parts and such problems as seizure
or malfunctioning. Replenish or
change these liquids when
performing the checks (daily and
periodic checks) as required by the
relevant regulations or in
accordance with the Maintenance
Schedule (when either the specified
driving distance or period of time,
whichever comes first, has expired).
Confirm that all systems and
components are normal after
performing the work.
Do not leave the removed parts or
tools in the engine compartment.
They could damage the equipment if
caught in the belts or other moving
components.
Dirty water, dirt and other impurities
seriously impair the effectiveness of
the oil, grease and fluids, and
damage the parts. Exercise all due
caution to prevent waste or other
refuse from coming in contact with
parts or materials that have been
removed when changing or
replenishing them.Do not step on the engine or climb
onto it. You could cause an engine
failure by, for example, damaging
the cylinder head cover or various
connectors.
Electric Welding
Careless electric welding of vehicle
parts can cause welding current to
flow back through the vehicle’s
ground circuit and damage electrical
and electronic parts so that they do
not function normally. Whenever
electric welding is necessary,
consult your dealer.

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.

The Location of Fuses and Relays
The fuses (3) and relays (2) are
located in the lower part of the
instrument panel in the center and
in the left rear of the cab.
The cover (1) must be opened in
order to carry out inspection and
replacement. In addition, the
cover (1) of the relay box at the left
rear of the cab must also be opened
at this time.
If you should spill water or a
beverage on the cover, wipe it off
before opening the cover.
The area around the cover may get
warm when the vehicle is being
driven, but this is not abnormal.Replacing Fuses
1. Before replacing fuses, firmly apply the parking brake, move
the selector lever to the
P (Park) position, and turn the
engine control switch to the
LOCK position.
2. The fuse puller is stored in the fuse box inside the cab. Place
the fuse puller on the fuse and
pull it out.
3. If the fuse appears asshown (2), the fuse is blown.
Replace with a spare fuse (1).
Spare fuses are stored in the
fuse box inside the cab.

{Warning
Always use fuses specified for the
vehicle. Using fuses with a rating
other than that specified, or using
wire or tin foil, etc., could result in
fire or damage.
If the new fuses blow right away
and the cause is unknown,
contact your dealer.
Do not inspect or replace fuses
when the starter switch is in the
ON position. Doing so may lead
to an accident.
When inspecting fuses, be sure to
park the vehicle on flat, level
ground and apply chocks to the
wheels.
Replacing Relays
Before replacing the relays, contact
the nearest dealer.
The vehicle may not be equipped
with all of the fuses, relays, and
features shown. It is not necessary to open or close
the cover unless trouble is found.
The relay box structure makes it
difficult for water to enter. If you
should spill water or a beverage of
the cover, however, wipe it off
before opening the cover.
The area around the cover will get
warm when the vehicle is being
driven, but this is not abnormal.
