yellowblue MaxifuseR/Relay Center Fuses and Circuit Breakers The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from short circuits by a combination of fuses and circuit breakers. This greatly reduces the chance of damage caused by electrical problems. Look at the silver-colored band inside the fuse. If the band is broken or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure you replace a bad fuse with a new one of the correct amp rating. Two spare fuses are located below the fuse puller. You'll also find spare fuses in the slots labeled "Spare" in the following charts. There are three main fuse panels: the instrument panel fuse block and two (driver's side and passenger's side) rear compartment fuse blocks. It's easy to check the fuses in this underhood relay center. There are two locking arms on either side of the base of the cover. Reach down and unsnap each one by pulling the cover toward you, then pushing it away while pulling up. Remove the cover. The inside of the cover has a chart that explains the features and controls governed by each fuse and relay. 6-61
