It is necessary to switch off the ignition switch and the corresponding electrical circuit if one wishes to remove any fuses or relays and the battery ground lead must be disconnected if anything electrical must be disconnected. Switches are made to break a circuit when a given current value is reached in order to avoid damaging a circuit in question, various components, and wiring due to excess current, usually as a result of a fault such as short circuit. The main central fuse box, which also contains some relays, is situated inside the car at the left end of the instrument panel beneath and to the left of the steering column and is marked by a removable cover. There is a combined timer relay at the rear of the primary fuse-box which operates the heated rear window, rear luminaries, and arranged wiper operation; it also triggers an alarm bleep in case the lights are left ignited or an automatic transmission car is poorly parked. The auxiliary fuse box is located on the right hand side of the firewall in the engine compartment behind the air cleaner which one has to open to access and there are few relays too. The circuits are numbered on the main fusebox: and on the inner lid of the auxiliary fusebox there are writings and wiring diagrams showing the circuits covered by the corresponding fuse. To check the fuses you must use a test light, if the light begins to glow from the exposed terminal ends, that fuse is bad, in addition the element between the terminals gives it away. Never use a higher capacity fuse or a piece of wire to patch up a fuse; this can cause significant harm or fire; it's printed on the top of a fuse. This is in addition to a 'battery saver' relay for the central fusebox in the event that the car is to be off the road for a long time. Some of the parts such as relays might be electrically operated switches used in certain circuits; these can be removed by simply pulling them from their sockets and some are fitted with a plastic bar which makes them easier to pull using the tweezers. When a relay-controlled component becomes a problem, listen closely when the circuit is turned on; if the relay makes a clicking sound, the relay is okay; the problem is elsewhere. If the relay does not energize, it may be because the relay is not getting switching voltage or is dead and the testing can be done by swapping the suspected relay with a known good relay, though different relays looking alike may do different things.

The electrical circuits of the vehicle have protection by fuses, circuit breakers, and fusible links with the main fuse and relay panel installed in the engine room and the interior fuse and relay panel in the cabin. There is small, medium and large fuses used in the fuse blocks and they all have the blade terminal type; the medium and large fuses can be easily withdrawn by hand, but the small fuses require removal by pliers or a plastic fuse-puller. In such a situation, basically what one has to do is to check the fuse and this can be done a long with using a test light whether or not the terminal tips have power, if one knows that the fuse is blown then the element can be easily seen to have melted. If you decide to replace a burnt fuse it is always important to ensure that you replace it with a fuse of the same rating because even if a particular fuse will physically fit into the place of another one it is not advisable to do so because every circuit should be protected by a particular type of fuse. If a replacement fuse has blown almost instantly then the root cause is normally a short circuit because of faulty wiring and this should be sorted before any new fuses are fitted. Furthermore, some circuits are protected by fusible links which is employed in high current applications and which deforms under excessive current; when replacing a problematic fusible link it has to be replaced by another one from the same specification and the circuit has to be checked in case the new link is also problematic.

The electrical circuits are protected by fuses and fusible links as well as circuit breakers; the two fuse panels are situated in the power distribution box in the engine compartment and above the driver's footwell. These panels employ simple to remove and replace fingertip fuses manufactured for use in mini circuits. One protects one or more circuits, and while there is a fuse guide, the best information is found in owner manuals. The ''footwell fuse panel cover'' has additional fuses and a ''fuse puller'' is fixed on the fuse box. When an electrical component is faulty, the fuse must be checked; testing for a power supply at the tips of the exposed fuses should be done with a test light. Where one side has power and the other does not, or by simply observing a melted link between the terminals or lack of a link all together because the fuse has been 'blown'. Each offered fuse puller tool should not be used with twisting movements to the fuses during both removal and installation processes as this also damages the connection. Larger blown fuses must be replaced with correct type and size of fuse as each circuit ought to be protected by the right fuse; fuses of different sizes may fit physically, but it is unwise to use a fuse with a higher or lower rating than required. The amperage value is printed directly in the fuse body and various types of fuses are of different colors. You are warned to always switch off the circuits and the ignition where the fuse is to be replaced, otherwise death or fire may be caused; and if you bypass a fuse with metal or foil, the hazard is immediately death or fire. If a replacement fuse was blown as soon as possible then it should not be replaced again before the root cause is normally a short circuit caused by a broken or deteriorated wire is first identified and tackled.

The electrical circuits of the vehicle are protected by a combination of fuses, circuit breakers and fusible links. These models have two fuse blocks, one for standard fused located under the instrument panel on the left side of the dashboard and one for high current fuses in the engine compartment, adjacent to the battery. Disconnect the battery negative cable before replacing high current fuses. The manufacturer recommends that high capacity fuses be replaced by a dealer or qualified electrical technician. Miniaturized fuses are employed in the fuse block in the passenger compartment. These compact fuses, with blade terminal design, allow fingertip removal and replacement. If an electrical component fails, always check the fuse first. A blown fuse is easily identified through the clear plastic body. Visually inspect the element for evidence of damage. If a continuity check is called for, the blade terminal tips are exposed in the fuse body. Be sure to replace blown fuses with the correct type. Fuses of different ratings are physically interchangeable, but only fuses of the proper rating should be used. Replacing a fuse with one of a higher or lower value than specified is not recommended. Each electrical circuit needs a specific amount of protection. The amperage value of each fuse is molded into the fuse body. If the replacement fuse immediately fails, don't replace it again until the cause of the problem is isolated and corrected. In most cases, the cause will be a short circuit in the wiring caused by a broken or deteriorated wire.

There are fuses, cartridge-type fusible links, and circuit breakers to protect the electrical circuits; the two fuse panels are found in each of the power distribution boxes, both in the engine room and inside the car. Fuse panels contain miniaturized fuses whose replacement requires the use of fingers and thumbs; if an electrical component fails it is best to check the fuse as part of the diagnosis using a test light to check power at the 'tip' of the terminal; a fused circuit can be seen with the naked eye. Each of the fuses operates one or more circuits and the interior of the fuse panel contains the fuses, a puller tool for the fuses and additional fuses with an identification chart. The engine compartment fuse panel can be released by pressing the tab that is above the emblem to pull it up and the foot well fuse panel in earlier models drops down, but in the later models this requires the removal of the plastic cover. One should not replace a blown fuse with another type of fuse because of each circuit's protection requirements it is risky to use a fuse with the different amperage value; the amperage value is always indicated molded in the fuse body where by the color code indicates the different amperages. Before replacing a fuse, it is recommended that all electrical components and the ignition switch should be turned off and never should a fuse be replaced with metal or foil to prevent aggravation of the electrical system damage. In case a replacement fuse blows almost immediately, don't replace it again until the root cause which most of the time is a short circuit arising from a compromised wire is fixed.

Circuit protection is provided by fuses, circuit breakers and fusible links, and the fuse and relay box is found inside the vehicle beneath the right kick panel. Each of these fuses protects a particular circuit, and the name of the circuits together with other details is marked on the cover of the fuse panel in addition to a reference guide to these fuses and relays. Miniature fuses with blade type ends are employed and inserted in the fuse block therefore they can be easily replaced without requiring tools. If a component does not work then it is advised to check the fuse first and to place the test light at the terminal tips; when there is power at one side but the other side lacks it, then the fuse is blown and it can be visibly checked. Blown fuses are as noted earlier should be replaced by the right kind of fuses because it is dangerous to have a wrong fuse in the circuit as the requirement could vary from one circuit to another. If the fuse is replaced and it blows out shortly there after, then the actual problem for the blow out, for instance a short circuit attributed to a spoilt wire, should be fixed before the next replacement. There are three fusible links between the battery and the alternator which are hidden under a plastic cover around the battery; the links melt to provide a break in the circuit if the electrical load becomes high. Again, with thick insulation it might even look like fusible links have the heavier wire gauge, but in fact they are even more slender than the wires they are designed to safeguard. In case a fusible link melts, it can technically be replaced with another link of the same gauge; however, at the time of writing, individual fusible links were out of the market, and so the whole cable between the battery and the alternation is replaced. However, if a fusible link has been seen to have melted, then it is important to find out why before asking for replacement links.
