Solution

1. Preparation

  • Gather necessary tools: fuse puller or needle-nose pliers, multimeter, replacement fuse.
  • Ensure the vehicle is turned off and keys are removed from the ignition.

2. Locate Fuse Box

  • Refer to the owner's manual for the exact location of the fuse box.

3. Remove the Blown Fuse

  • Use the fuse puller or pliers to carefully remove the blown fuse from its socket.
  • Inspect the fuse to confirm it is indeed blown.
