The
headlamp wiring is protected by a circuit breaker.
An electrical overload will cause the lamps to go on and
off, or in some cases to remain
off. If this happens, have
your headlamp wiring checked right away.
Windshield Wipers 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, and
not snow, etc., be sure to get it fixed.
Power Windows and Other Power Options
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. The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from
short circuits by 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 correct size.
If you ever have a problem on the road and don’t
have a
spare fuse, you can borrow one. Just pick some feature
of your vehicle that you can get along without -- like the
radio or air conditioner
-- and use its fuse, if it is of the
value you need. Replace it as soon as you can.
Before replacing
a fuse, turn every electrical switch off.
