Replacing fuses
There are relay/fuse boxes located in the
engine compartment and the passenger
compartment.
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, special fuse removal
tools are located on the inside of the fuse
box covers.
2. From the side, examine the curved
metal wire in the fuse to see if it is
intact.
3. If the wire is broken, insert a new fuse
of the same color and amperage (writ-
ten on the fuse).
If fuses burn out repeatedly, have the electri-
cal system inspected by an authorized Volvo
retailer.
WARNING
Never use fuses with higher amperage than
those stated in the following tables. Doing
so could overload the vehicle's electrical
system.
