2003 Volvo S40 & V40
A label on the inside of each cover indicates the amperage and the electrical components that are
connected to each fuse.
The easiest way to see if a fuse is blown is to remove it. Pull the fuse straight out. From the side,
examine the curved metal wire to see if it is broken. If so, put in a new fuse of the same color and
amperage (written on the fuse). Spare fuses are stored in the fuse box cover. If fuses burn out repeatedly,
have the electrical system tested at a Volvo retailer. If you find it difficult to remove a fuse, you will find
a special fuse tool clipped in the fuse box.
WARNING!
Never use fuses with higher amperage than those stated on the following pages. Doing so could
overload the car's electrical system.
pg. 96 Fuses
NOTE: If a trailer hitch has been installed, two supplementary fuses will be added to the cable harness
near the right tail light.
