T FUSE DESCRIPTION Main Fuse Block The main fuse block is located on the right side of the engine compartment and contains nine fuses and two relays. -1 Fuse Box Fuse block No.1 is located above the dead pedal of the driver side. The fuse box cover shows the speci- fied fuse locations. A circuit breaker is included in the fuse box to protect the heater blower motor circuit. Fuse block No.2 is located to the side of the battery in the trunk compartment. 45UOTX-016 REPLACEMENT Caution Determine and correct the cause of a burnt fuse before replacing it. If the fuse is replaced before doing this, it may burn again. Plate type 1. Disconnect the negative battery cable. 2. Replace the failed fuse with the fuse puller. 3. Reconnect the negative battery cable. Cartridge-type 80A fuse (Black) 1. Disconnect the negative battery cable. 2. Remove the fuse block mounting nuts, and remove the service cover. 3. Remove the fuse installation bolts, and pull out the fuse. 4. Install the new fuse and the fuse installation bolts. 5. Install the main fuse block. 6. Reconnect the negative battery cable.
