CHANGING A FUSE

Fuses

WARNING: Always replace a fuse with one that has the
specified amperage rating. Using a fuse with a higher amperage

rating can cause severe wire damage and could start a fire.

If electrical components in your
vehicle are not working, a fuse may
have blown. Blown fuses are identified
by a broken wire within the fuse.
Check the appropriate fuses before
replacing any electrical components.

FUSE SPECIFICATION CHART

WARNING: Always disconnect the battery before servicing high
current fuses.

WARNING: To reduce risk of electrical shock, always replace the
cover to the power distribution box before reconnecting the

battery or refilling fluid reservoirs.

The power distribution box is located in the engine compartment. It has
high-current fuses that protect your vehicle’s main electrical systems
from overloads.

If the battery has been disconnected and reconnected, see Changing the
Vehicle Battery
