Jeep Wrangler: Fuses / General Information
WARNING!
- When replacing a blown fuse, always use
an appropriate replacement fuse with the
same amp rating as the original fuse. Never
replace a fuse with another fuse of higher
amp rating. Never replace a blown fuse with
metal wires or any other material. Failure to
use proper fuses may result in serious
personal injury, fire and/or property
damage.
- Before replacing a fuse, make sure that the
ignition is off and that all the other services
are switched off and/or disengaged.
- If the replaced fuse blows again, contact an
authorized dealer.
- If a general protection fuse for safety
systems (air bag system, braking system),
power unit systems (engine system,
gearbox system) or steering system blows,
contact an authorized dealer.
The fuses protect electrical systems against
excessive current.
When a device does not work, you must check
the fuse element inside the blade fuse for a
break/melt.
Also, please be aware that when using power
outlets for extended period of time with the
engine off, may result in vehicle battery
discharge.
