Replacing the fuses under the hood
If the headlights or other electrical
components do not work and the fuses
in the cabin are normal, inspect the fuse
block under the hood. If a fuse is blown, it
must be replaced. Follow these steps:
1. Make sure the ignition is switched off,
and other switches are off.
2. Remove the fuse block cover.
NOTE
If the lock is forcefully opened, the fuse
block cover may come in contact with the
frame when it is removed and become
scratched.
When removing the cover, remove it slowly
according to the following procedure.
1. Disengage the rear lock by pressing
down on the front tab with your
fingers.
2. Remove the front tab while slightly
lifting the front of the cover.

same amperage rating.

WARNING
Do not replace the main fuse and
multiplex slow blow fuse by yourself.
Have an Authorized Mazda Dealer
perform the replacement:
Replacing these fuses by yourself is
dangerous because they are high
current fuses. Incorrect replacement
could cause an electrical shock or a
short circuit resulting in a fire.
4. Reinstall the cover and make sure that
it is securely installed.
