Fig. 1.110. Location of the fuse box in the passenger compartment of the vehicle: 1 – fuse box; 2 – lid
Open the lid 2 (under the steering wheel or in the glove compartment) (fig..1.110).
Identify the purpose of the fuses by their label.
Check the relevant fuse and, if necessary, be sure to replace it with a new one having the same rated current value.
When installing a fuse with a high rated current, the wires become very hot, which can cause a fire due to excessive consumption of electrical energy by the equipment.
Fig. 1.111. Example of a working and a blown fuse: 1 – tweezers
Remove the fuse from the socket using tweezers 1 located in cover 2 (fig. 1.111).
To remove a fuse from the tweezers, slide the fuse to the side as shown in Figure 1.111. It is not recommended to use the empty slots for storing spare fuses.
