Replacing a Fusible Link
A fusible link will melt if the electrical
circuits from the battery are ever over-
loaded, thus preventing damage to
the entire wiring harness. (This could
be caused by a short in the system
drawing too much current.) If this
ever happens, have a Hyundai dealer
determine the cause, repair the sys-
tem and replace the fusible link. The
fusible links are located in a relay
box(1.6L/2.0L) or below the positive
(+) post cover of the battery (2.7L) for
easy inspection.
CAUTION:
When replacing a fusible link, never
use anything but a new fusible
link with the same or lower amper-
age rating. Never use a piece of
wire or a higher-rated fusible link.
This could result in serious dam-
age and create a fire hazard.

Replacing Accessory Fuse
The fuse box for the lights and other
electrical accessories will be found
low on the dashboard on the driver's
side. Inside the box you will find a list

fuse.
If any of your car's lights or other
electrical accessories stop working, a
blown fuse could be the reason. If the
fuse has burned out, you will see that
the metal strip inside the fuse has
burned through. If you suspect a blown
fuse, follow this procedure:
