The passenger Compartment Fuse Panel is located beneath the steering wheel, next to the brake pedal. To gain entry to the individual fuses that power your vehicle’s various systems, simply remove the protective panel cover, unveiling the intricate array of electrical components.
Should you need to replace a fuse, a specialized tool is provided on the fuse panel cover itself. This fuse puller tool allows for the safe and efficient removal of any faulty fuse, ensuring a seamless process for restoring the proper functionality of your automobile’s electrical circuits.
