yellowblue Electrical System Add-On Electrical Equipment Windshield Wiper Fuses The windshield wiper motor is powered by a MaxiFuse. If the motor overheats due to heavy snow, etc., the wipers will stop until the motor cools. If the overload is caused by some electrical problem, be sure to have it fixed. NOTICE: Don't add anything electrical to your vehicle unless you check with your dealer first. Some electrical equipment can damage your vehicle and the damage wouldn't be covered by your warranty. Some add-on electrical equipment can keep other components from working as they should. Your vehicle has an air bag system. Before attempting to add anything electrical to your vehicle, see "Servicing Your Air Bag-Equipped Vehicle" in the Index. 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. MaxiFusesR/Relay Center Headlamp Wiring The headlamp wiring has an individual fuse which is powered by a MaxiFuseR. An electrical overload will cause the lamps to go on and off, or in some cases to remain off. If this happens, have the headlamp wiring checked right away. The MaxiFuses and relays are located next to the engine compartment fuse block on the driver's side of the engine. To access the compartment fuse block, remove the shroud cover. If a MaxiFuse should blow, have your vehicle serviced by your dealer immediately. 6-59
