Maintenance and service

Fuses

Cable routing may vary slightly due to engine variant. However, the components listed are in the same positions.

All electrical functions and components are
fused to protect your car’s electrical system
from damage by short circuiting and
overloading.
Fuses are housed in four different locations in
the car:
1. Relay/fuse box in the engine

compartment.

2. Fuse box in the passenger compartment

within the sound barrier on the driver’s
side.

3. Fuse box in the passenger compartment

at dashboard end on driver’s side.

4. Fuse box in cargo area.

Changing
If an electrical component or function does
not work, this may be because the
component’s fuse was temporarily
overloaded and blew.
– Look in the fuse diagram to locate the

fuse.

– Pull out the fuse and check from the side

to see whether the curved wire has
blown.

– If this is the case, replace it with a new

fuse of the same colour and amperage.

There are a number of spare fuses in the
cover on the end of the dashboard. There are
also pliers which facilitate the removal and
fitting of fuses.

If the same fuse blows repeatedly, there is a
fault in the component. Contact an
authorised Volvo workshop to have it
checked.
