Intermediate Voltage Devices and
Wiring
{ CAUTION:
Exposure to intermediate voltage can cause shock
and burns. The intermediate voltage systems in
the vehicle can only be serviced by technicians
with special training.
Intermediate voltage devices are identified by
labels. Do not remove, open, take apart, or modify
these devices. Intermediate voltage cable or wiring
has blue covering. Do not probe, tamper with, cut,
or modify intermediate voltage cable or wiring.
Add-On Electrical Equipment
Notice: Do not add anything electrical to the
vehicle unless you check with your dealer/retailer
first. Some electrical equipment can damage
the vehicle and the damage would not be covered
by the vehicle’s warranty. Some add-on electrical
equipment can keep other components from
working as they should.
Add-on equipment can drain the vehicle battery, even if
the vehicle is not operating.
The vehicle has an airbag system. Before attempting to
add anything electrical to the vehicle, see Servicing
Your Airbag-Equipped Vehicle on page 1-70.
Windshield Wiper Fuses
The windshield wiper motor is protected by an internal
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.
