Electrical System
Overload

The vehicle has fuses and circuit
breakers to protect against an
electrical system overload.

When the current electrical load is
too heavy, the circuit breaker opens
and closes, protecting the circuit
until the current load returns to
normal or the problem is fixed. This

greatly reduces the chance of circuit
overload and fire caused by
electrical problems.

Fuses and circuit breakers protect
the following in the vehicle:

.

Headlamp Wiring

.

Windshield Wiper Motor

.

Power Windows and Other
Power Accessories

Replace a bad fuse with a new one
of the identical size and rating.

If there is a problem on the road and
a fuse needs to be replaced, the
same amperage fuse can be
borrowed. Choose some feature of
the vehicle that is not needed to use
and replace it as soon as possible.

Headlamp Wiring

An electrical overload may cause
the lamps to go on and off, or in
some cases to remain off. Have the
headlamp wiring checked right away
if the lamps go on and off or
remain off.
