Fuses and fuseboxes

Electrical functions and components are protected by a number of fuses in order to protect the vehicle's electrical system from damage by short circuiting or overloading. Fuses are located in the vehicle's fuse boxes.

 Warning

Never use a foreign object or a fuse with a higher amperage than that specified to replace a fuse. This could cause significant damage to the electrical system and possibly lead to a fire.

If any electrical component or function is not responding, the component's fuse may be overloaded and must then be replaced. If the same fuse is repeatedly overloaded, there may be a problem with the component. Volvo recommends contacting an authorized Volvo workshop to have the component checked.
