A blown fuse must be replaced.

Replacing a fuse

  1. 1Switch the vehicle power OFF (on the PHEV also disconnect the 12 V battery negative cable, as for opening the fuse box).
  2. 2Find the suspect fuse using the fuse and relay layout.
  3. 3Pull it out with the fuse puller.
  4. 4Check whether it has blown. If you're not sure, replace it with a spare fuse of the same amp rating, shown on the diagram inside the fuse box cover.

Note:If you have no spare, use a fuse of the same rating – the PHEV manual suggests taking one from a non-essential circuit in an emergency. It's worth keeping a set of spare fuses in the car.

Caution:Never modify a fuse or fuse box. Only fit a fuse with the same amp rating, and never use wire instead of a fuse, even temporarily – it can seriously damage electrical equipment or cause a fire.
