Service and Appearance Care Headlights The headlight wiring is protected by a circuit breaker. An electrical overload will cause the lights to go on and off, or in some cases to remain off. If this happens, have your headlight wiring checked right away. Windshield Wipers 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 causedby 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. Fuses and Circuit Breakers The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from short circuits by a combination of fuses, circuit breakers, and fusible thermal links in the wiring itself. This greatly reduces the chance of fires caused by electrical problems. There are two fuse centers on your vehicle. One is in the left side of your instrument panel. The other is in the engine compartment. Open the cover oneither of the boxes to expose the fuses. Look at the silver-colored band inside the fuse. If the band is brokenor melted, replace the fuse. Besure 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 of the correct value. Just pick some feature of your vehicle that you car get along without - like the radio or cigarette lighter - and use its fuse, if it i the size you need. Replace it as soon as you can. ...228

Service
and
Appearance
Care
Fuses and Circuit
Breakers
The wiring circuits in
your vehicle are
protected
from
short circuits by a
combination of fuses, circuit breakers,
and fusible thermal
links
in
the
wiring
itself. This greatly reduces the chance of
fires caused by electrical problems.
There are two fuse centers on
your
vehicle. One is in
the left side of your
instrument panel.
The other is
in
the engine compartment.
Open
the
cover
on either of
the
boxes
to
expose
the
fuses.
Look
at the silver-colored
band
inside
the fuse.
If
the
band
is
broken or melted,
replace
the
fuse.
Besure 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 of
the correct value. Just pick
some
feature of
your
vehicle
that
you
car
get along
without
-
like
the radio or
cigarette lighter
-
and
use
its fuse,
if
it
i
the size you
need.
Replace
it
as
soon
as
you
can.
Headlights
The headlight
wiring
is
protected by a
circuit breaker. An electrical
overload
will cause the lights to
go
on
and
off,
or
in
some cases to remain
off. If this
happens,
have
your
headlight
wiring
checked right away.
Windshield
Wipers
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
causedby
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.
