If an electrical component fails to function, it
is possible that a fuse has blown.
The fuse boxes are located in four different
places, see the illustration above.
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
1 .
remove it. Pull the fuse straight out. If a fuse
is difficult to remove, you will find a special
fuse removal tool (and several extra fuses) in
the passenger compartment fuse box on the
driver's end of dashboard. From the side,
examine the curved metal wire (see the illus-
tration) 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 the fuse box in the engine compartment
and the passenger compartment. If fuses
burn out repeatedly, have the electrical sys-
tem inspected by a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician.
