Where is the car brake light fuse located?

Car brake light fuses are generally located in the engine compartment, and their exact position varies depending on the vehicle model. More information about brake lights is as follows: 1. Brake lights illuminate when the vehicle is braking. They are usually installed at the rear of the vehicle, with a red main color to enhance light penetration and alert other vehicles. 2. In low visibility conditions, they effectively prevent rear-end collisions and reduce traffic accidents. 3. Issues with vehicle brake lights generally fall into two categories: wiring problems or brake light damage. 4. Damaged brake lights will cause the vehicle to fail the annual inspection. According to Article 21 of the 'Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China': Before driving a motor vehicle on the road, the driver must carefully inspect the vehicle's safety technical performance and must not drive a vehicle with incomplete safety facilities or components that do not meet technical standards, posing safety hazards.
I've driven several types of cars, and the brake light fuse is usually hidden in the fuse box, with no fixed location. Most cars have it in one of three places: the most common is the box under the hood, like some Japanese cars place it near the battery; inside the cabin, such as under a small cover near the steering wheel or behind the glove compartment, which I often encounter during repairs; and some are in the corner of the trunk, especially in SUVs. The main reasons for a blown fuse are a short circuit or an instantaneous current overload when braking. Finding it is simple: pull out the fuse labeled 'brake,' and if the metal wire is broken, replace it with a new one of the same amperage. If you're unsure of the location, the owner's manual has diagrams. Safety first—broken lights increase the risk of rear-end collisions, so fix them promptly for peace of mind.
