Where is the Swift fuel pump fuse located?
2 Answers
The Swift fuel pump fuse is located in the fuse box in the engine compartment. Open the fuse box, and you can find the position and current rating of the fuel pump fuse on the back of the box cover. Once located, you can use the tweezers provided inside the box for replacement. Below is a detailed introduction to the fuse: 1. The fuse is commonly referred to as such, but its official name is 'circuit breaker.' The purpose of a car fuse is similar to that of a household fuse—it acts as a protective barrier for the circuit by melting when the current exceeds its rated value. Automotive fuses are generally divided into two types: fast-acting fuses and slow-blow fuses. 2. Typically, a vehicle has two fuse boxes containing the fuses. One is located on the right side of the engine compartment, primarily responsible for the safety of external electrical components such as the ECU, windshield washer fluid, lights, horn, and ABS circuits. The other is located on the lower left side of the steering column, mainly ensuring the proper functioning of internal electrical components like the cigarette lighter, power windows, electric seats, and airbags.
Dude, I ran into the same issue when fixing my Swift last time. The fuel pump fuse is usually hidden in that black box under the driver’s seat—just bend down or pry open the side panel and you’ll spot it. The design is pretty stealthy but super easy to access. Once opened, there’s a diagram on the back of the fuse box cover labeling each fuse’s function. The fuel pump section typically says 'Fuel Pump' or has a corresponding number like F15—check your car’s year-specific manual for accuracy. If your car won’t start, just hums, or stalls, chances are the fuse is blown. DIY replacement is quick: turn off the ignition, pull out the old fuse, and slot in a new one of the same rating (commonly 15A or 20A). Keep a few spares in your car’s toolkit. Regularly peek inside the fuse box too—dust or moisture can wreck it, saving you future headaches. Honestly, handling these small fixes yourself makes driving way more worry-free.
