Replacing a Fuse
To remove a fuse box cover, press the plastic tabs
on either side.
Identify the fuse protecting the affected circuit. Refer
to the label on the inside of the fuse box cover or
the fuse tables provided in this section.
Pull the fuse to remove it. A break in the wire inside
the fuse indicates that the fuse has blown.
Note: Do not replace fuses in fuse boxes 1 and 4,
and do not remove or replace any relays. If one of
these fails, contact Tesla.
Warning: Always manually power Model S off
before replacing a fuse (see
page 40).
Caution: Only use Tesla-approved
replacement fuses of the same rating and
specification. Using an incorrect fuse can
damage the electrical system and result in a
fire.
Caution: If a replacement fuse blows after
installation, contact Tesla to have the electrical
system checked.
