The main fuses are located in the fuse box under the instrument panel on the driver's side. Additional fuses (more power) located in the fuse and relay box under the hood on the left side.
To replace the fuses located under the instrument panel, do the following:

Pic. 10.19. Fuse and relay box under the hood
To replace the fuses and relays located in the box in the engine compartment, remove the cover from the fuse and relay box in the engine compartment (pic. 10.19).
Note. On the cover of the box are the circuits protected by each of the fuses.

Pic. 10.20. Removing the fuse
Before removing a fuse, first turn off the corresponding circuit. Then take out the fuse (pic. 10.20) and inspect the wire connecting the fuse contacts. In a blown fuse, this wire is soldered and does not connect the fuse contacts.
Use a fuse suitable for the current of the circuit. Do not replace a higher amperage fuse or repair a fuse with wire or metal foil, as this may cause serious malfunction and fire. The value of the current for which the fuse is designed is stamped on its upper part. At the same time, the fuses are also color-coded (tab. 10.1).
Table 10.1
Color | Current strength, A |
Orange | 5 |
Red | 10 |
Blue | 15 |
Yellow | 20 |
Colorless (white) | 25 |
Green | 30 |
Do not attempt to replace the fuse more than once until the circuit has been corrected. If a new fuse fails, the cause must be investigated. Usually this is a short circuit. If the fuse protects several circuits at once, each circuit must be checked individually.
Spare fuses can be stored in a dedicated compartment in the fuse and relay box.
