6-62 Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected
from short circuits by a combination of fuses, circuit
breakers and fusible thermal links in the wiring itself.
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.
Driver's Side Instrument Panel Fuse Block
Some fuses are in a fuse
block at the end of the
instrument panel on the
driver's side of the vehicle.
Pull off the cover labeled
FUSES to expose the fuses.
