Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination of fuses and circuit
breakers. This greatly reduces the chance
of fires caused
by electrical problems.
Look at the silver-colored band inside the fuse. If the
band is broken or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure you
replace a bad fuse with
a new
one of the identical size
and rating. If a Maxifuse should blow, see your dealer
for service immediately.
If you ever have a problem on the road and don't have a
spare fuse, you can "borrow" one that has the same
amperage. Pick some feature of your vehicle that you
can get along without
--
like the radio or cigarette
lighter
--
and use its fuse, if it is the correct amperage.
Replace it as soon as you can.
The MaxiFuses are located in two Bussed Electrical
Centers (BEC), one located near the engine compartment
on the passenger's side and the other under the rear seat on
the driver's side. If a MaxiFuse should blow, have your
vehicle serviced by your dealer immediately.
Engine Compartment Bussed Electrical Center (BEC)
As mentioned above, the front Bussed Electrical Center
(BEC) is located in the front of the engine compartment
on the passenger's side. Lift the cover to gain access.
