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. BLOWN 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. 6. If the replacement fuse of the same rating burns out in a short time, your car probably has a serious electrical problem. Leave the burned-out fuse in that circuit, and have your car checked by a qualified technician. 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. 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.

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, your car probably
has a serious electrical
problem. Leave the
burned-out fuse in that
circuit, and have your car
checked by a qualified
technician.
