Checking and replacing fuses
Type A fuses can be pulled out by using
the pull−out tool. The location of the pull−
out tool is shown in the illustration.
Type A
If you are not sure whether the fuse has
blown, try replacing the suspected fuse
with one that you know is good.
CY73033
If the fuse has blown, push a new fuse
into the clip.

Only install a fuse with the amperage rat-
ing designated on the fuse box lid.
Type B
If you do not have a spare fuse, in an
emergency you can pull out the “PWR
OUTLET” or “HEATER NO.2” fuse, which
may be dispensable for normal driving,
and use it if its amperage rating is the
same.
If the headlights or other electrical
components do not work, check the
fuses. If any of the fuses are blown,
they must be replaced.
CY73023
If you cannot use one of the same amper-
age, use one that is lower, but as close
to the rating as possible. If the amperage
is lower than that specified, the fuse
might blow out again but this does not
indicate anything wrong. Be sure to get
the correct fuse as soon as possible and
return the substitute to its original clip.

See “Fuse locations” on page 430 in Sec-
tion 7−1 for locations of the fuses.
Type C
Turn the engine switch and inoperative
component off. Pull the suspected fuse
straight out and check it.
Determine which fuse may be causing the
problem. The lid of the fuse box shows
the name of the circuit for each fuse. See
page 468 in Section 8 for the functions
controlled by each circuit.
It is a good idea to purchase a set of
spare fuses and keep them in your ve-
hicle for emergencies.
