Battery charging circuit (except for the excitation winding), the ignition and engine starting circuits are not protected by fuses.
Before replacing a blown fuse, you should find out the reason for the fuse blowing and fix it. When troubleshooting, it is recommended to look at the circuits (Table 9.3) that are protected by this fuse.
Replacing fuses and relays in the mounting block
Location of relays and fuses in the mounting block:
- K1 - place for installing the headlight washer relay;
- K2 - window lifter circuit switching relay;
- KZ - starter relay;
- K4 - additional relay (ignition switch relay);
- K5 - relay for turning on direction indicators and hazard warning lights;
- K6 - windshield washer and wiper relay;
- K7 - high beam headlight relay;
- K8 - sound signal relay;
- K9 - front fog lights relay;
- K10 - rear window heating relay;
- K11 - relay for switching on the front seat heating circuit;
- K12 - place for backup relay;
- F1-F32 - fuses (circuits protected by pin-type fuses are listed in Table. 9.3)
Electrical equipment devices that consume a large current during operation are connected via relays that protect the switch contacts from overload.
To replace pin fuses and relays, the mounting block is equipped with special plastic tweezers 1 and 2 (see photo).
1. Open the cover of the mounting block, overcome the resistance of the clamps, hook the fuse with tweezers and remove it from the contact connector.
2. Install a fuse of the same rating as the one removed into the contact connector.
3. Remove the relay using tweezers in the same way.
4. Install a relay of the same type as the one removed.
