If A Fuse Blows - Fiat Bravo Owner's Manual

IF A FUSE BLOWS

GENERAL
The fuse is a protective device for the
electric system: it comes into action (i.e.
it cuts off) mainly due to a fault or im-
proper action on the system.
When a device does not work, check the
efficiency of its fuse: the conductor ele-
ment A-fig. 47 must be intact. If not, re-
place the fuse with one of the same amp
rating (same colour).
B: undamaged fuse
C: fuse with damaged filament.
To replace a fuse, use the pliers D hooked
to the fusebox on the dashboard.
WARNING
If a fuse blows again, contact
a Fiat Dealership.

WARNING
If a general fuse (MEGA-
FUSE, MIDI-FUSE, MAXI-
FUSE) cuts in, do not attempt any re-
pair and contact a Fiat Dealership.
