Car fuses are widely used in cars, trucks, buses, and off-road transportation equipment and are essential electronic devices in automotive circuits. In vehicles, the role of automotive fuses is to protect the circuit (wiring) and electrical equipment. When the car fuse is bad, how do we follow the replacement? First we need to understand the location of the car fuse.

Location of Car Fuses

The fuse box in your car can be located in more than one location, and depending on the model, make or type of vehicle you own, there may be more than one fuse box.
The average vehicle will have two fuse boxes that contain the fuses in the car. One is located on the right side of the engine compartment and is responsible for the safety of the car’s exterior appliances, such as the ECU, glass water, lights, horn, ABS, and other circuits, while the other is located on the left side of the lower steering column and is responsible for the proper functioning of the car’s interior appliances, such as the cigarette lighter, window lifters, power seats, and airbags. However, the easiest way to find your fuse box is to consult your owner’s manual. If you don’t find it, you can usually search for it online.

Car Fuses Replacement Tutorial

If any electrical device does not work while your car is in use, it may be caused by a blown fuse, which needs to be replaced promptly. (Needs to be operated by a professional)
The method is: first turn off the ignition switch, open the fuse box cover. Then replace the fuse.
Notes:

1.Replace the fuse according to the rated current value indicated on the cover of the fuse box, do not change to a fuse with a higher current than the rated current.

2.If the new fuse blows immediately, the circuit system may be defective and should be repaired as soon as possible

3.In the absence of a spare fuse, in an emergency, replace the fuse with one from another device that does not affect driving or safety.

4.If it is not possible to find a fuse with the same current load, a fuse with a lower current rating than the original one can be used instead.

Conclusion

This is a tutorial on automotive fuse types and locations and replacement. While there are many reasons why you need to determine the type of fuse in your vehicle, the most common is to replace it. Be especially aware that a blown fuse can be a sign of a larger problem with your vehicle’s electrical system, and you should consult a qualified mechanic to ensure its safe operation to avoid putting yourself or others at risk.
