Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine NOTICE:
Don't add anything electrical to your Cadillac
unless you check with your dealer first. Some
electrical equipment can damage your vehicle
and
the damage wouldn't be covered by your warranty.
Some add-on electrical equipment can keep other
components from working
as they should.
Your vehicle has an air bag system. Before attempting to
add anything electrical to your Cadillac, see "Servicing
Your Air Bag-Equipped Cadillac"
in the Index.
irin
The headlamp wiring has an individual fuse which is
powered by a MaxiFuse@. An electrical overload will
cause the
lamps to go on and off. or in some cases to
remain off. If this happens, have the headlamp wiring
checked right away.
MaxiFuse is a registered trademark
of Little Fuse
Incorporated.
iper Falses
The windshield wiper motor is powered by a MaxiFuse.
If the motor overheats due to heavy snow, etc., the
wipers will stop until the motor cools.
If the overload is
caused by some electrical problem, be sure to have it
fixed.
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.
.clay center
The MaxiFuses and relays are located next to the engine
compartment fuse block on the driver's side
of the
engine. If a MaxiFuse should blow, have your vehicle
serviced
by your Cadillac dealer immediately.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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. 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.
There are two fuse blocks in your vehicle: the engine
compartment fuse block and the rear compartment
fuse block. The fuse
block is located next
to the air cleaner on the
driver’s side of the engine. Lift the cover to gain access.
