Fuses And Circuit Breakers; Engine Compartment Fuse Block - Chevrolet TrailBlazer 2007 Owner's Manual

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 you ever have a problem on the road and
don't have a spare fuse, you can borrow one
that has the same amperage. Just 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.

Engine Compartment Fuse Block

The fuse block is located under the hood in the
engine compartment on the driver's side of
the vehicle. See Engine Compartment Overview
on page 392 for more information on location.
Remove the primary cover by pressing the
two locking tabs. Remove the secondary cover by
snapping off while lifting. To reinstall the fuse
panel cover, reverse the sequence.
