pg.92 Fuses
Replacing fuses
If an electrical component fails to function, it is likely that a fuse has blown due to a temporary circuit
overload.
The fuse boxes are located in three different places:
A - Relays/fuse box in the engine compartment
B - Fuse box in the passenger compartment
C - Relays/fuse box in the trunk
A label on the inside of each cover indicates the amperage and the electrical components that are
connected to each fuse.
The easiest way to see if a fuse is blown is to remove it. Pull the fuse straight out. If a fuse is difficult to
remove, you will find a special fuse removal tool in the passenger compartment fuse box. From the side,
examine the curved metal wire to see if it is broken. If so, put in a new
fuse of the same color and amperage (written on the fuse). Spare fuses are stored in the fuse box in the
passenger compartment. If fuses burn out repeatedly, have the electrical system inspected by an
authorized Volvo retailer.
