Fuses
Checking and Replacing
Fuses
If something electrical in your car
stops working, the first thing you
should check for is a blown fuse.
Determine from the chart on pages
204
and
205
, or the diagram on the
fuse box lid, which fuse or fuses
control that component. Check
those fuses first, but check all the
fuses before deciding that is not the
cause. Replace any blown fuses and
check the component's operation.
1. Turn the ignition switch to
LOCK (0). Make sure the head-
lights and all other accessories
are off.
2. Remove the cover from the fuse
box.
3. Check each of the large fuses in
the underhood fuse box by
looking through the top at the
wire inside. Removing these
fuses requires a Phillips-head
screwdriver.
4. Check the smaller fuses in the
underhood fuse box and all the
fuses in the interior fuse box by
pulling out each fuse with the
fuse puller provided in the
interior fuse box.
