Replacing fuses

There are relay/fuse boxes located in the
engine compartment, the passenger compart-
ment, and the trunk.

If an electrical component fails to function, this
may be due to a blown fuse. The easiest way
to see if a fuse is blown is to remove it.

To do so:

1.

Pull the fuse straight out. If a fuse is difficult
to remove, a special fuse removal tool is
located on the inside of the engine com-
partment fuse box cover.

2.

From the side, examine the curved metal
wire in the fuse to see if it is intact.

If the wire is broken, insert a new fuse of the
same color and amperage (written on the fuse).

If fuses burn out repeatedly, have the electrical
system inspected by a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician.

WARNING

Never use metal objects or fuses with higher
amperage than those stated on the follow-
ing pages. Doing so could seriously damage
or overload the vehicle's electrical system.
