Fuses BLOWN If you replace the burned out 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. NOTICE Replacing a fuse with one that has a higher rating greatly increases the chances of damaging the electrical system. If you do not have a replacement fuse with the proper rating for the circuit, install one with a lower rating. 6. If the replacement fuse of the same rating burns out in a short time, there is probably a serious electrical problem in your car. Leave the burned out fuse in that circuit and have your car checked by a qualified technician. 5. Look for a burned wire inside the fuse. If it is burned out, replace it with one of the spare fuses of the same rating or lower. If you cannot drive the car 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 cigarette lighter or radio). Taking Care of the Unexpected

Fuses
5.
Look for a burned wire inside
the fuse. If it is burned out,
replace it with one of the
spare fuses of the same rating
or lower.
If you cannot drive the car 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
cigarette lighter or radio).
If you replace the burned out 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.
Replacing a fuse with one that has
a higher rating greatly increases
the chances of damaging the
electrical system. If you do not
have a replacement fuse with the
proper rating for the circuit, install
one with a lower rating.
6.
If the replacement fuse of the
same rating burns out in a
short time, there is probably a
serious electrical problem in
your car. Leave the burned out
fuse in that circuit and have
your car checked by a qualified
technician.
