fuses CHEVROLET CORVETTE 2010 6.G Owners Manual

Testing the Alarm
To test the system: 1. Make sure the trunk lid/hatch is latched.
2. Lower the window on the driver door.
3. Manually arm the system.
4. Close the doors and wait 30 seconds.
5. Reach through the open window and manually pull the release lever on the floor.
6. Press the unlock button on the transmitter to turn off the alarm.
If the alarm does not sound, check to see if the horn
works. The horn fuse may be blown. See Fuses and
Circuit Breakers
on page 6‑101. If the horn works, but
the alarm does not go off, see your dealer/retailer.
Disarming the System
Press the unlock button on the keyless access
transmitter or squeeze the door handle sensor while
the transmitter is near the vehicle to unlock a door.
Unlocking a door any other way sets off the alarm.
If the alarm sounds, press the unlock button on the
keyless access transmitter to disarm it.
Do not leave the key or device that disarms or
deactivates the theft deterrent system in the vehicle.
Immobilizer
See Radio Frequency Statementon page 8‑20for information regarding Part 15 of the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) Rules and
RSS-210/211 of Industry Canada.
Immobilizer Operation
The vehicle has a passive theft-deterrent system.
The system is automatically armed when the ignition is
turned off.
The immobilization system is disarmed when the
ignition is turned to OFF/ACCESSORY or START and
a valid transmitter is found in the vehicle.
You do not have to manually arm or disarm the system.
The security light comes on if there is a problem with
arming or disarming the theft-deterrent system.
The system has one or more keyless access
transmitters that are matched to an immobilizer control
unit in the vehicle. Only a correctly matched keyless
access transmitter starts the vehicle. The vehicle may
not start if the keyless access transmitter is damaged.
If the engine does not start and the security light comes
on, there may be a problem with the immobilizer
system. Press the START button again.
3-20

If the vehicle does not start and the keyless access
transmitter appears to be undamaged, try another
keyless access transmitter. Or, place the transmitter in
the transmitter pocket. See “NO FOBS DETECTED”
under DIC Warnings and Messages
on page 4‑52for
additional information. Check the fuse. See Fuses and
Circuit Breakers
on page 6‑101. If the engine still does
not start with the other transmitter, the vehicle needs
service. If the engine does start, the first transmitter
may be faulty. See your dealer/retailer or have a new
keyless access transmitter programmed to the vehicle.
The immobilizer system can learn new or replacement
keyless access transmitters. Up to four keyless
access transmitters can be programmed for the vehicle.
To program additional transmitters, see “Matching
transmitter(s) to Your Vehicle” underKeyless Access
System Operation on page 3‑5.
Do not leave the key or device that disarms or
deactivates the theft deterrent system in the vehicle.
Starting and Operating Your
Vehicle
New Vehicle Break-In
Follow these recommended guidelines during the first
1,500 miles/2414 km of driving this vehicle. Parts have
a break-in period and performance will be better in the
long run.
For the first 200 miles/322 km:
.To break in new tires, drive at moderate
speeds and avoid hard cornering for the
first 200 miles/322 km.
.New brake linings also need a break-in
period. Avoid making hard stops during the
first 200 miles/322 km. This is recommended
every time brake linings are replaced.
3-21

Turn and Lane-Change Signals
(Auto Signal)
An arrow on the
instrument panel cluster
flashes in the direction of
the turn or lane change.
Move the the lever all the way up or down to signal
a turn.
Raise or lower the lever until the arrow starts to flash to
signal a lane change. Release the lever and the turn
signal automatically flashes three times. If more flashes
are desired, continue to hold the lever.
The lever returns to its starting position when it is
released.
If after signaling a turn or lane change the arrows flash
rapidly or do not come on, a signal bulb may be
burned out.
Have the bulbs replaced. If the bulb is not burned out,
check the fuse. See Fuses and Circuit Breakers
on
page 6‑101.
Turn Signal on Chime
A chime sounds if the turn signal has been on for more
than three‐quarters of a mile (1.2 km) of driving.
If you need to leave the turn signal on for more than
three‐quarters of a mile (1.2 km), turn off the signal and
then turn it back on.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
To change the headlamps from low beam to high, push
the turn signal lever all the way forward. To change from
high to low beam, pull the lever rearward.
While the high beams
are on, this light on the
instrument panel cluster
will also be lit.
Flash-to-Pass
To use the flash-to-pass feature, briefly pull the turn
signal lever toward you. The high-beam indicator
flashes to indicate to the other driver that you intend to
pass. If the low-beam headlamps are off and the fog
lamps are on, the fog lamps flash.

Clean the inside of the windshield as needed to remove
any dirt or film that reduces the sharpness or clarity of
the HUD image.
To clean the HUD, spray household glass cleaner on a
soft, clean cloth. Wipe the HUD lens gently, then dry it.
Do not spray cleaner directly on the lens because the
cleaner could leak into the unit.
If the ignition is on and the HUD image cannot be seen,
check to see if:
.Something is covering the HUD unit.
.The HUD dimmer control is adjusted properly.
.The HUD image is adjusted to the proper height.
.Ambient light is low, in the direction the vehicle is
facing.
.A fuse is blown. See Fuses and Circuit Breakerson page 6‑101.
Keep in mind that the windshield is part of the HUD
system. See Windshield Replacement on page 6‑59.
Accessory Power Outlet(s)
The accessory power outlet can be used to connect
electrical equipment, such as a cellular phone.
The accessory power outlet is located inside the center
console storage compartment, on the forward left side.
To use the outlet, remove the tethered cap. When not
using it, always cover the outlet with the protective cap.
Notice: Leaving electrical equipment plugged in for
an extended period of time while the vehicle is off
will drain the battery. Power is always supplied to
the outlets. Always unplug electrical equipment
when not in use and do not plug in equipment that
exceeds the maximum 20 ampere rating.
Certain electrical accessories may not be compatible
with the accessory power outlet and could result in
blown vehicle or adapter fuses. If you experience
a problem, see your dealer/retailer for additional
information on accessory power outlets.

Service Parts Identification Label
This label, on the inside of the glove box, has the
following information:
.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
.Model designation
.Paint information
.Production options and special equipment
Do not remove this label from the vehicle.
Electrical System
Add-On Electrical Equipment
Notice: Do not add anything electrical to the vehicle
unless you check with your dealer/retailer first.
Some electrical equipment can damage the vehicle
and the damage would not be covered by the
vehicle's warranty. Some add-on electrical
equipment can keep other components from
working as they should.
Add-on equipment can drain the vehicle battery, even if
the vehicle is not operating. The vehicle has an airbag system. Before attempting
to add anything electrical to the vehicle, see
Servicing
Your Airbag-Equipped Vehicle
on page 2‑58and
Adding Equipment to Your Airbag-Equipped Vehicleon
page 2‑59.
Headlamp Wiring
The headlamp wiring is protected by fuses in the fuse
block. An electrical overload will cause the lamps to turn
off. If this happens, have the headlamp wiring checked
right away.
Windshield Wiper Fuses
The windshield wiper motor is protected by a circuit
breaker and a fuse. If the motor overheats due to heavy
snow, etc., the wiper will stop until the motor cools.
If the overload is caused by some electrical problem,
have it fixed.
Power Windows and Other Power
Options
Circuit breakers protect the power seats, 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.
6-100

Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in the 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 the
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. Vehicles with the ZR–1 package have an intercooler
relay located on the fan shroud. See your dealer/
retailer.
Vehicles with the ZR–1 package also have a fuel
system mini-fuse. It is located near the battery in the
battery storage compartment in the rear of the vehicle.
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.
