Note: If the headlights or other electrical components do not work, then check the fuses. If any of the fuses are blown, they must be replaced.
1. Turn off the ignition.
2. The figure below shows the layout of the fuses in the car. Determine which fuse is blown
3. If you are unsure whether the fuse in question is blown or not, then replace the suspect fuse with another fuse that you are sure is good to check.
Note: for removing and installing type fuses "A" use a special puller "tweezers".
4. Install only a fuse with the ampere rating indicated on the cover of the fuse box.
5. If there is no spare fuse, then in critical situations, you can remove the fuses from the positions "RADIO", "A/C" or "MIR-HTR", which are not necessary for the normal movement of the car, and use them if their denomination matches the necessary one.
Note: Do not use a fuse with a higher current rating or any other items ("bugs") instead of a blown fuse. This may cause more serious damage or fire.
6. If you do not have a fuse with a nominal value, then you should use a fuse with a lower value, as close as possible to the nominal value.
Note: It is recommended to keep a set of spare fuses in the vehicle.
7. If a new fuse blows immediately, this indicates a fault in the electrical system.

Note: the location of the fuses in various configurations may differ slightly from those shown in the figures in the chapter "Body electrical equipment".
Checking fusible links
1. If the headlights or other electrical components do not work and the fuses are in order, then check the fuses. If some of the fuses are blown, then they need to be replaced.
2. Fusible links are rated to melt before all electrical wiring is damaged in the event that an overload occurs in the electrical circuits from the battery.
Note: Before replacing fuse links, determine the cause of the electrical overload and make any necessary repairs.
Attention: Do not use wire instead of fusible links, even for temporary installations, as this may cause damage to the electrical system and cause a fire.
