410 Vehicle Care
Fuses and circuit breakers
protect power devices in the
vehicle.
If there is a problem on the
road and a fuse needs to be
replaced, the same amperage
fuse can be borrowed. Choose
some feature of the vehicle
that is not needed to use and
replace it as soon as possible.
To check a fuse, look at the
band inside the fuse. If the
band is broken or melted,
replace the fuse. Be sure to
replace a bad fuse with a fuse
of the identical size and rating.
Replacing a Blown Fuse
1. Turn off the ignition.
2. Locate the fuse puller inthe engine compartment
fuse block.
3. Use the fuse puller toremove the fuse from the
top or side, as shown
above.

Vehicle Care 411
4. If the fuse must bereplaced immediately,
borrow a replacement fuse
with the same amperage
from the fuse block.
Choose a vehicle feature
that is not needed to
safely operate the vehicle.
Repeat Steps 2-3.
5. Insert the replacement fuse into the empty slot of
the blown fuse.
At the next opportunity, see
your dealer to replace the
blown fuse.
Headlamp Wiring
An electrical overload may
cause the lamps to go on and
off, or in some cases to remain
off. Have the headlamp wiring
checked right away if the
lamps go on and off or
remain off.
Windshield Wipers
If the wiper motor overheats
due to heavy snow or ice, the
windshield wipers will stop. Wiper function is available
immediately after the wiper
switch is set to off, and back
to on.
To protect the wiper motor
from overheating, the wipers
may slow down when the
windshield is dry for a long
period of time. If a period of
dry operation, or little
moisture, exceeds 10 minutes,
the wipers may switch to
intermittent operation, and
remain there. When moisture
is again detected on the
windshield, wiper operation
will return to the operator
selected speed.
Although the circuit is
protected from electrical
overload, overload due to
heavy snow or ice may cause
wiper linkage damage. Always
clear ice and heavy snow from
the windshield before using
the windshield wipers.
If the overload is caused by an
electrical problem and not
snow or ice, be sure to get it
fixed.
Fuses and Circuit
Breakers
The wiring circuits in the
vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination
of fuses and circuit breakers.
This greatly reduces the
chance of damage caused by
electrical problems.
{Danger
Fuses and circuit breakers
are marked with
their ampere rating. Do not
exceed the
specified amperage rating
when replacing fuses and
circuit breakers. Use of an
oversized fuse or circuit
breaker can result in a
vehicle fire. You and others
could be seriously injured or
killed.

412 Vehicle Care
{Warning
Installation or use of fuses
that do not meet GM’s
original fuse specifications is
dangerous. The fuses could
fail, and result in a fire. You
or others could be injured or
killed, and the vehicle could
be damaged.
See Accessories and
Modifications 0374 and
General Information 0374.
To check or replace a blown
fuse, see Electrical System
Overload 0409.
Engine Compartment
Fuse Block
The engine compartment fuse
block is on the driver side of
the engine compartment.
Lift the fuse block cover to
access the fuses. The vehicle may not be
equipped with all of the fuses
and relays shown.
Caution
Spilling liquid on any
electrical component on the
vehicle may damage it.
Always keep the covers on
any electrical component.

Wheels and Tires
Tires
Every new GM vehicle has
high-quality tires made by a
leading tire manufacturer.
See the warranty manual
for information regarding
the tire warranty and
where to get service. For
additional information refer
to the tire manufacturer.
{Warning
.Poorly maintained and
improperly used tires
are dangerous.
.Overloading the tires
can cause overheating
as a result of too much
(Continued)
Warning (Continued) flexing. There could be
a blowout and a serious
crash. See Vehicle Load
Limits 0261.
.Underinflated tires
pose the same danger
as overloaded tires. The
resulting crash could
cause serious injury.
Check all tires
frequently to maintain
the recommended
pressure. Tire pressure
should be checked
when the tires are cold.
.Overinflated tires are
more likely to be cut,
punctured, or broken by
a sudden impact —such
as when hitting a
pothole. Keep tires at
the recommended
pressure.

Vehicle Care 419
Warning (Continued)
.Worn or old tires can
cause a crash. If the
tread is badly worn,
replace them.
.Replace any tires that
have been damaged by
impacts with potholes,
curbs, etc.
.Improperly repaired
tires can cause a crash.
Only your dealer or an
authorized tire service
center should repair,
replace, dismount, and
mount the tires.
.Do not spin the tires in
excess of 56 km/h
(35 mph) on slippery
surfaces such as snow,
mud, ice, etc. Excessive
spinning may cause the
tires to explode.See Tire Pressure for
High-Speed Operation
0
429 for inflation pressure
adjustment for high-speed
driving.
All-Season Tires
This vehicle may come with
all-season tires. These tires
are designed to provide good
overall performance on most
road surfaces and weather
conditions. Original equipment
tires designed to GM's specific
tire performance criteria have
a TPC specification code
molded onto the sidewall.
Original equipment all-season
tires can be identified by the
last two characters of this
TPC code, which will be “MS.”
Consider installing winter tires
on the vehicle if frequent
driving on snow or ice-covered
roads is expected. All-season
tires provide adequate
performance for most winter
driving conditions, but they
may not offer the same level of traction or performance as
winter tires on snow or
ice-covered roads. See Winter
Tires
0419.
Winter Tires
This vehicle was not originally
equipped with winter tires.
Winter tires are designed for
increased traction on snow
and ice-covered roads.
Consider installing winter tires
on the vehicle if frequent
driving on ice or snow covered
roads is expected. See your
dealer for details regarding
winter tire availability and
proper tire selection. Also, see
Buying New Tires 0437.
With winter tires, there may
be decreased dry road
traction, increased road noise,
and shorter tread life. After
changing to winter tires, be
alert for changes in vehicle
handling and braking.
