Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination of fuses, circuit breakers
and fusible thermal links.
Look at the silver-colored L-Band inside the fuse. If the
L-Band is broken or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure you
replace a bad fuse with a new one of the identical size
and rating.
If you ever have a problem on the road and don't have
a spare fuse, you can borrow one that has the same
amperage. Just pick a feature of your vehicle that
you can get along without – like the radio or cigarette
lighter – and use its fuse, if it is the right amperage.
Replace it as soon as you can.
There are two fuse blocks in your vehicle: the floor
console fuse block and the underhood fuse block.
Floor Console Fuse Block
The fuses marked spare are available if a replacement
fuse is needed.
Pull the door open to access the fuse block.
The floor console fuse
block is located to the right
of the shift lever.
