Windshield Wiper Fuses
The windshield wiper motor is protected by a circuit
breaker and a fuse. If the motor overheats due to heavy
snow, etc., the wiper will stop until the motor cools. If the
overload is caused by some electrical problem, have it
fixed.
Power Windows and Other Power
Options
Circuit breakers protect the power seats, power windows,
and other power accessories. When the current load
is too heavy, the circuit breaker opens and closes,
protecting the circuit until the problem is fixed or
goes away.
Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in the vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination of J-Case fuses,
mini-fuses and circuit breakers. This greatly reduces
the chance of fires 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 the 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.
Vehicles with the ZR–1 package have an intercooler
relay located on the fan shroud. See your dealer/retailer.
Vehicles with the ZR–1 package also have a fuel
system mini-fuse. It is located near the battery in the
battery storage compartment in the rear of the vehicle.
Instrument Panel Fuse Block
The instrument panel fuse block is located on the
passenger side of the vehicle, under the instrument
panel and under the toe-board.
Remove the carpet and toe-board covering to access
the fuse block by pulling at the top of each corner of the
panel. Open the fuse block cover to access the fuses.
You can remove fuses using the fuse puller.
