wiper size GMC ENVOY 1998 Owners Manual

.dshield Wipers
I he windshield wiper motor is protected by a circuit
breaker and
a fuse. If the motor overheats due to heavy
snow or ice, the wipers will stop
until the motor cools. If
the overload is caused by some electrical problem, be
sure to get
it fixed.
Power Windows and Other Power Options
Circuit breakers protect the power windows and other
power accessories. When the current load is too heavy,
the circuit breaker opens and closes, protecting the
circuit
until the problem is fixed or goes away.
Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination of 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 don’t 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.
