Fuse CHEVROLET MONTE CARLO 1973 2.G Owners Manual

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Turn Signal and Lane
. Change Features
The tum signal lever is located
on the left side of the steering
column immediately under the
steering wheel. The lever
is moved
upward to signal a right
tum and
downward to signal a left tum.
Lamps on the front and rear of
the car transmit this signal to
other motorists and pedestrians.
The ignition switch must be in the
"ON" position in order for the
turn signals to be operational. This
feature prevents battery drain if
the lever
is left in an "ON" posi­
tion when your car
is not in use.
In a normal turning situation
such
as turning a comer, the
signal
is cancelled automatically
after the tum
is completed. How­
ever, in some driving maneuvers
such
as changing lanes on an
expressway, the steering wheel
is
not turned back sufficiently after completing
the
tum to automatic­
ally cancel the turn signal.
For
convenience in such maneuvers,
the driver can flash the
tum
signals by moving the tum signal
lever part way (to the first stop)
and holding it there. The lever
returns to the neutral
or cancelled
position when the driver releases
his hold on the lever.
20
A green light on the instrument
cluster flashes to indicate proper
operation of the front and rear
tum signal lamps. If the indicator
lamp remains on and does not
flash, check for a defective lamp
bulb.
If the indicator fails to light
when the lever
is moved, check
the fuse and indicator bulb.

FUSES AND CIRCUIT BREAKER
The wiring circuits in your 1973 Monte
Carlo are protected from short circuits by a
combination of fuses, circuit breakers, and fus­
ible thermal links in the wiring itself. This
greatly reduces the hazard of electrically caused
fires in the automobile .
The fuse junction block
is located under the left side of the instrument

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine FUSES AND CIRCUIT BREAKER:
The headlamp circuit is protected by a circuit breaker in the light switch. An electrical overload on the breaker will cause the lamps to go on and
off, or in some cases to remain off. If this condition develops, have your
wiring circuits checked immediately. Also, a circuit breaker, mounted on the firewall, protects the power window and power seat circuits if vehicle is so equipped. Where current load is too heavy, the circuit breaker
intermittently opens and closes, protecting the circuit until the cause is found and eliminated.
Fuses, located in the Junction Block beneath the dash on the driver's side are:
Radio, TCS, Rear Defogger
Power Window Relay, Hydra-matic Downshift, Anti Diesel Control. .... .. ................ ... ... .... .. 20 Amp. W /S Wiper. ... .......................................... 25 Amp.

Clock, Courtesy Light, Lighter, Glove Box and Dome Lamp ... . 20 Amp.
Tail Lamps, License, and Side Marking Lamp .............. .. 20 Amp.
An Air Conditioning high blower speed fuse, 30 amp. is located in an I n-line fuse holder running from horn relay to Air Conditioning relay.
Do not use fuses of higher amperage rating than those recommended above.
Fusible Links are incorporated into the wiring system. These are wires of such a gauge that they will fuse (or melt) before damage occurs to an entire
wiring harness in the event of an electrical overload. See your Chevrolet Dealer if fusible link replacement becomes necessary.
