Main Menu Table Of Contents Fuses If you cannot drive the vehicle without fixing the problem, and you do not have a spare fuse, take a fuse of the same rating or a lower rating from one of the other circuits. Make sure you can do without that circuit temporarily (such as the accessory power socket or radio). If you replace the blown fuse with a spare fuse that has a lower rating, it might blow out again. This does not indicate anything wrong. Replace the fuse with one of the correct rating as soon as you can. 6. If the replacement fuse of the same rating blows in a short time, there is probably a serious electrical problem in your vehicle. Leave the blown fuse in that circuit and have your vehicle checked by a qualified technician. If the radio fuse is removed, the audio system will disable itself. The next time you turn on the radio you may see ''ENTER CODE'' in the frequency display. Use the preset buttons to enter the digit code (see page 218 ). On vehicles with a navigation system, touch the appropriate icon to enter the code number (see page 218 ). BLOWN 5. Look for a blown wire inside the fuse. If it is blown, replace it with one of the spare fuses of the same rating or lower. Your vehicle has spare fuses on the back of the under-hood fuse box cover. Taking Care of the Unexpected Replacing a f use with one that has a higher rating greatly increases the chances of damaging the electrical system. If you do not have a replacement f use with the proper rating f or the circuit, install one with a lower rating. 329 2008 CR- V
