Fuses
[ER00800(R)01/96]
Fuses protect your vehicle's electrical system from overloading.

may have been overloaded and blown a fuse. Before you
replace or repair any electrical parts, check the appropriate
fuses.
[ER00900(R)01/96]
The following charts tell you which fuses protect each electrical
part of your vehicle. If a fuse blows, all the parts of your
vehicle that use that circuit will not work.

Once you have determined which fuses to check, follow the
procedures underChecking and replacing fuseslater in this
