2003 Volvo S80
If an electrical component fails to function, it is likely that a fuse has blown due to a temporary
circuit overload.
The fuse boxes are located in three different places:
A - Relays/fuse box in the engine compartment
B - Fuse box in the passenger compartment
C - Relays/fuse box in the trunk
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 remove it. Pull the fuse straight out. If a fuse is difficult
to remove, you will find a special fuse removal tool in the passenger compartment fuse box. From
the side, examine the curved metal wire 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 passenger
compartment. If fuses burn out repeatedly, have the electrical system inspected by an authorized
Volvo retailer.
WARNING!
Never use fuses with higher amperage than those stated on the following pages. Doing so could
overload the car's electrical system.

amperage (written on the fuse).
