Fuses — description and location (Opel Frontera A)

Contents: Relay location ⬇ Location of fuses in the block ⬇
Protection of the vehicle's electrical circuits is provided by using a combination of fuses, circuit breakers and fusible links. A blown fuse can be easily distinguished from a good one by examining its transparent plastic housing. Carefully inspect the fuse to see if it is blown. If the fuse looks normal on the outside, but you still suspect it is faulty, check the continuity between the blade terminals protruding from its body.

When replacing fuses, make sure that the replacement fuse matches the old one by type. Fuses rated for different amperage may appear identical, so special attention should be paid to the markings. Replacing a blown fuse with one rated for a lower - and especially higher - current is not advisable. Each electrical circuit requires a different level of protection. Make sure that the marking on the fuse body corresponds to the current strength for which the corresponding circuit is designed.

If a replaced fuse blows immediately, it is not wise to continue replacing it. First, you need to identify and eliminate the reason for its knocking out. In most cases, this turns out to be a short circuit in the circuit's electrical wiring, caused by a break or damage to the wire insulation.

The fuse breaks the electrical circuit when the current reaches the set value. In this way, the consumer and its circuit are protected from damage. In the event of a short circuit, for example, the fuse melts, protecting the circuit.

The illustration shows the fuses cars produced until the end of 1995. The rated current of the fuses is given. Fuses protect the following circuits:
  • 1 - F10E, rated current 10 A, left headlight, beam range adjustment, high beam indicator lamp
  • 2 - F9E, rated current 15 A, right headlight, low beam
