Fuses - Jeep WRANGLER 4Xe 2022 Manual

FUSES

General Information
The fuses protect electrical systems against
excessive current.
When a device does not work, you must check the
fuse element inside the blade fuse for a break/melt.
Also, please be aware that using power outlets for
extended periods of time with the engine off may
result in vehicle battery discharge.
WARNING!
When replacing a blown fuse, always use an

appropriate replacement fuse with the same
amp rating as the original fuse. Never replace
a fuse with another fuse of higher amp rating.
The use of a fuse with a rating other than indi-
cated may result in a dangerous electrical
system overload. If a properly rated fuse
continues to blow, it indicates a problem in the
circuit that must be corrected. Never replace a
blown fuse with metal wires or any other mate-
rial. Failure to use proper fuses may result in
serious personal injury, fire and/or property
damage.
Before replacing a fuse, make sure that the

ignition is off and that all the other services
are switched off and/or disengaged.
If the replaced fuse blows again, contact an

authorized dealer.
If a general protection fuse for safety systems

(air bag system, braking system), power unit
systems (engine system, gearbox system) or
steering system blows, contact an authorized
dealer.

SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
Power Distribution Center (PDC)
The Power Distribution Center is located in the
engine compartment near the battery. This center
contains cartridge fuses, mini fuses, and relays.
The PDC top cover is labeled with each serviceable
fuse/relay location, function, and size.
CAUTION!
When installing the power distribution center
cover, it is important to ensure the cover is
properly positioned and fully latched. Failure to
do so may allow water to get into the power
distribution center and possibly result in an
electrical system failure.
