Always replace a blown fuse with a
fuse of the correct amperage. Never
use a substitute such as aluminum
foil or wire to replace a blown fuse. If
you replace a fuse and the new one
blows in a short period of time, you
may have a major electrical problem.
Have your vehicle inspected immedi-
ately by your SUZUKI dealer.
