1 Answers
Pull the main relay fuse to prevent the car from starting. Fuse box locations and functions: Generally, there are two fuse boxes in a vehicle. One is located inside the engine compartment and is responsible for the normal operation of external electrical components, such as headlights, horns, the engine control unit, the air conditioning compressor, and the windshield washer motor, providing circuit protection. The other is located on the left side of the steering wheel or inside the glove box, responsible for the normal operation of internal electrical components, such as power windows, cigarette lighters, power seats, and airbags. Types of automotive fuses: There are also two different types of automotive fuses. One is the blade-type fuse, which is thinner, plug-in style, and allows a circuit current of 5-25A. The other is the slow-blow fuse, which is square, plug-in style, and allows a circuit current of 20-60A. The color represents the amperage of the fuse, making it easy to distinguish between different amperage ratings, which are also labeled on the fuse.
