IOD FUSE
DESCRIPTION
All vehicles are equipped with an Ignition-Off
Draw (IOD) fuse that is disconnected within the
Junction Block when the vehicle is shipped from the
factory. Dealer personnel are to reconnect the IOD
fuse in the junction block as part of the preparation
procedures performed just prior to new vehicle deliv-
ery.
On left hand drive vehicles, the left end of the
instrument panel cover has a snap-fit fuse access
panel that can be removed to provide service access
to the fuses in the junction block. On right hand
drive vehicles the junction block is mounted on the
right hand side of the instrument panel. A finger
recess is molded into the access panel for easy
removal. An adhesive-backed fuse layout map is
secured to the instrument panel side of the access
panel to ensure proper fuse identification. The IOD
fuse is a 15 ampere mini blade-type fuse, located in
fuse cavity # 34. The fuse is secured within a White
molded plastic fuse holder and puller unit that serves
both as a tool for disconnecting and reconnecting the
fuse in its junction block cavity, and as a fuse holder
that conveniently stores the fuse in the same junc-
tion block cavity after it has been disconnected.

OPERATION

The term ignition-off draw identifies a normal con-
dition where power is being drained from the battery
with the ignition switch in the Off position. The IOD
fuse feeds the memory and sleep mode functions for
some of the electronic modules in the vehicle as well
as various other accessories that require battery cur-
rent when the ignition switch is in the Off position.
The only reason the IOD fuse is disconnected is to
reduce the normal IOD of the vehicle electrical sys-
tem during new vehicle transportation and pre-deliv-
ery storage to reduce battery depletion, while still
allowing vehicle operation so that the vehicle can be
loaded, unloaded and moved as needed by both vehi-
cle transportation company and dealer personnel.
The IOD fuse is disconnected from JB fuse cavity #
34 when the vehicle is shipped from the assembly
plant. Dealer personnel must reconnect the IOD fuse
