Fuses and Circuit Breakers The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from short circuits by a combination of fuses, circuit breakers and fusible thermal links in the wiring itself. 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 identical size and rating.
Instrument Panel Fuse Diagram
The instrument panel fuse blocks are located at each end of the instrument panel. To access the fuses, open the fuse panel door by pulling out. To replace the door, insert the hooks at the front end first, then push the door into the instrument panel to secure it.

If you ever have a problem on the road and don’t have a spare fuse, you can borrow one that has the same amperage. Just pick a feature of your vehicle that you can get along without — like the radio or cigarette lighter — and use its fuse, if it is the correct amperage. Replace it as soon as you can. Also, there are spare fuses in the left side instrument panel door. There are three fuse blocks in your vehicle: two instrument panel fuse blocks and the engine compartment fuse block.
