General
Cable routing may vary slightly due to engine variant. However, the components listed are in the same positions.
All electrical functions and components are
protected with a number of fuses to protect
your car's electrical system from damage by
short-circuits or overloads.
The fuses are in five different locations in the
car:
Relay/fuse box in the engine compartment.
Fuse box in the passenger compartment
within the sound barrier on the driver's
side.
Fuse box in the passenger compartment at
dashboard end on driver's side.

Fuse box in cargo area.
Fuse box in cargo area - Executive*
If an electrical component or function does not
work, this may be because the component's
fuse was temporarily overloaded and blew.
1. Look in the fuse diagram to locate the fuse.
2. Pull out the fuse and check from the side
to see whether the curved wire has blown.
3. If this is the case, replace it with a new fuse
of the same colour and amperage.
WARNING
Never use a foreign object, or a fuse with an
amperage higher than that specified when
replacing a fuse. This could cause signifi-
cant damage to the electrical system and
possibly lead to fire.
There are a number of spare fuses in the cover
on the end face of the dashboard. There are
also pliers which facilitate the removal and fit-
ting of fuses.
