Q: How are the electrical circuits safeguarded and what should be done if a fuse blows on Saturn Vue?
A: With reference to the protection of electrical circuits, fuses, circuit breakers and fusible links are used on the vehicle, whereby fuse blocks can be found at the side of the shift console and near the battery in the compartment. The fuses are individual for each circuit they protect, and the identification is available on the cover of the fuse panel. To change any of the miniaturized fuses, so packaged with a blade terminal, removing and replacement are relatively easy; when an electrical component is suspect, the fuse must be checked, commonly with a test light to confirm power at the terminal tips. A blown fuse may be recognized if power is bright on one side while there is darkness on the side; one can tell by eyesight that the element in between the terminals is glowing or missing when it has been blown. One must also ensure that the broken fuses are replaced with fuses of the correct capacity because despite being physically interchangeable it is dangerous to do so because of the fact that the circuits require distinct levels of protection. If, however, a new fuse blows quickly, the real problem, most of the time a short circuit from a wire that has been damaged should be sought before more replacements. Also, some circuits contain fusible links, often in places where high currents are required, for example, in charging or starting circuits. These links can be conventional in line links which is easily recognizable by a bump in the middle of the link or the more recent cartridge type located in the engine compartment fuse and relay box; although they look like fuses, they are linked and may be substituted with similar amperage after the negative battery link has been loosened.
