Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected
from short circuits by a combination of fuses,
circuit breakers and fusible thermal links.
This greatly reduces the chance of damage
caused by electrical problems.
Look at the silver-colored band inside the fuse. If
the band is broken or melted, replace the fuse.
Be sure you replace a bad fuse with a new one of
the identical size and rating.
If you ever have a problem on the road and do not
have a spare fuse, you can “borrow” one that
has the same amperage. Just pick some feature
of your vehicle that you can get along
without — like the radio or cigarette lighter — and
use its fuse if it is the correct amperage.
Replace it as soon as you can.
There are two fuse blocks in your vehicle: the floor
console fuse block and the engine compartment
fuse block.
There are also one or two fuses located at the
back of the vehicle near the battery.
Floor Console Fuse Block
The floor console fuse block is located on the
passenger’s side of the floor console behind the
forward panel. The panel has four clips, one in
each corner. Pull the panel to disconnect the four
clips, and access the fuses. Use the fuse puller to
remove fuses.
