ldd-On Electrical Equbment
Fuses & Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are
protected from short circuits by a
combination of fuses, circuit breakers,
and fusible thermal links in the wiring
itself. This greatly reduces the chance of
fires caused by electrical problems.
The fuse panel is located on the lower
left side of the instrument panel. To
open, pull the handle marked
FUSE
down and forward.
To identify and check fuses, refer to the
Fuse Usage chart.
Look at the silver-colored band inside
;he fuse. If the 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.
