Fuses And Circuit Breakers; Instrument Panel Fuse Block - Chevrolet 2008 Corvette Owner's Manual

Fuses and Circuit Breakers

The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination of J-Case fuses,
mini-fuses and circuit breakers. This greatly reduces the
chance of fires caused by electrical problems.
Look at the silver-colored band inside the 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.
If you ever have a problem on the road and do not have
a spare fuse, you can borrow one that has the same
amperage. Just pick some feature of your vehicle
that you can get along without – like the radio or
cigarette lighter – and use its fuse, if it is the correct
amperage. Replace it as soon as you can.

Instrument Panel Fuse Block

The instrument panel fuse block is located on the
passenger side of the vehicle, under the instrument
panel and under the toe-board.
Remove the carpet and toe-board covering to access
the fuse block by pulling at the top of each corner of the
panel. Open the fuse block cover to access the fuses.
You can remove fuses using the fuse puller.
