Fuse Block #1: Description
An electrical fuse block is concealed under the driver side steering column. The fuse block serves to distribute electrical current to many of the electrical systems in the vehicle. The fuse block contains blade-type mini fuses, relays and micro processors that enable automatic control of some of the power distribution circuits throughout the vehicle.
The molded plastic fuse block housing has an integral mounting bracket that is secured with screws to the steering column. A finger recess is molded into the cover for easy removal. A fuse layout map is molded onto the back side of the cover to ensure proper fuse identification.
The fuse block cannot be repaired, if the fuse block is faulty or damaged or if any internal circuit is faulty or damaged, the entire fuse block must be replaced.
