Fuses and central electrical units
Electrical functions and components are protected by a number of fuses in order to protect the car's electrical system from damage by short circuiting or overloading. The fuses are fitted in the car's various fuse boxes.
Warning
Never use a foreign object or a fuse with an amperage higher than that specified when replacing a fuse. This could cause significant damage to the electrical system and possibly lead to fire.
Warning
Orange-coloured cables must only be handled by qualified personnel.
Warning
Several components in the car work with high-voltage current that could be dangerous in the event of incorrect intervention.
Do not touch anything that is not clearly described in the owner's manual for the car.
If an electrical component or function does not work, it may be because the component's fuse was overloaded, which must be changed. If the same fuse is overloaded repeatedly then there is a fault in the component. Volvo recommends contacting an authorised Volvo workshop for checking.
