I've encountered the air conditioning compressor fuse issue with the Cruze, which is usually hidden in the vehicle's fuse box. The fuse box is located in two places: under the hood near the battery, or inside the cabin under the driver's side kick panel—you'll need to crouch down to find it. The location may vary depending on the Cruze model, so my advice is to first check the owner's manual or search online forums for peace of mind. The inspection steps are simple: park and turn off the engine, open the fuse box cover, and look for the icon indicating the fuse related to the AC system, such as the one labeled "AC" or "Comp." Use tweezers to pull it out and check—if the wire is black or broken, it's blown. Just replace it with a new fuse of the same amperage. Fuses often blow due to circuit overload or short circuits, such as sparks caused by aging wiring. If the AC stops cooling, don’t panic—stop and check, but avoid tampering with the wiring yourself to prevent electric shock or vehicle failure. If you're unsure, just go to the 4S shop for a replacement. Remember, testing fuses during regular maintenance can prevent trouble, especially during hot summer days when issues are more likely to arise.
