Fuses
Purpose
Fuses are used in the circuits to limit damage in the
event of excessive current flow. If a fuse fails, look
for a short circuit, a corroded/poor connection, or any
component that appears to have been overheated. A
failed fuse is a sign of a problem in that circuit.
Location
The fuses are located on the right hand side of the lower
frame assembly, above the relay, next to the engine (Fig.
0863).

How It Works
The fuse block is where the wires that carry 12 volts
meet the wires that need 12 volts to operate a compon-
ent or function. The fuse makes the connection between
the 12 volt wire carrying the current and the 12 volt wire
that needs the current.
Testing
A failed fuse will often be discolored or melted. Please
note that not all fuse failures are easy to see. A fuse
can be checked with a continuity tester if there is doubt.
If there is no continuity between the fuse terminals,
replace the fuse, even if it appears good.
