High Voltage Devices and Wiring
{ CAUTION:
Exposure to high voltage can cause shock,
burns, and even death. The high voltage
systems in your vehicle can only be serviced
by technicians with special training.
High voltage devices are identified by labels.
Do not remove, open, take apart, or modify
these devices. High voltage cable or wiring has
orange covering. Do not probe, tamper with,
cut, or modify high voltage cable or wiring.
Add-On Electrical Equipment
Notice: Do not add anything electrical to your
vehicle unless you check with your dealer/retailer
first. Some electrical equipment can damage
your vehicle and the damage would not be covered
by your warranty. Some add-on electrical equipment
can keep other components from working as they
should.
Add-on equipment can drain your vehicle’s battery, even
if your vehicle is not operating.
Your vehicle has an airbag system. Before attempting to
add anything electrical to your vehicle, see Servicing
Your Airbag-Equipped Vehicle on page 1-78.
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.
