Replacing fuses
If an electrical component fails to function, it is likely that a fuse has blown due to a temporary circuit
overload.
The fuse boxes are located in the engine compartment (see illustration) and can be opened by pressing
the catches and lifting the cover (Relay/Main fuse box) or by lifting the cover (supplementary fuse box).
A label on the inside of each cover indicates the amperage and the electrical components that are
connected to each fuse.
The easiest way to see if a fuse is blown is to remove it *. Pull the fuse straight out. From the side,
examine the curved metal wire to see if it is broken. If so, put in a new fuse of the same color and
amperage (written on the fuse). Spare fuses are stored in a compartment in the Supplementary fuse box.
If fuses burn out repeatedly, have the electrical system tested at a Volvo retailer. If you find it difficult to
remove a fuse, you will find a special fuse tool clipped in the fuse box.
