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.

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.
