Changing a Fuse
WARNING: Always replace a fuse with one that has the specified amperage rating. Using a fuse with a higher amperage rating can cause severe wire damage and could start a fire.
If electrical components in your vehicle are not working, a fuse may have blown. Blown fuses are identified by a broken wire within the fuse. Check the appropriate fuses before replacing any electrical components.

My Sync/Communication touch tone center is going bonkers, like it has a mind of its own. Only stops when I turn car totally off and exit the vehicle. How do I fix this?
