ELECTRICAL SYSTEM<br />
CAUTION: Do not modify or improperly repair<br />
the vehicle’s electrical system or power distribution<br />
box. All electrical repairs should be performed<br />
by an authorized <strong>Peterbilt</strong> dealer.<br />
Improper repair or modifications will void your<br />
warranty and/or cause serious damage to your<br />
vehicle.<br />
Location Of Fuses<br />
Fuses are located inside the cab, left side, next to the driver’s<br />
door.<br />
Preventive Maintenance<br />
CAUTION: Never patch fuses with tin foil or wire.<br />
This may cause serious damage elsewhere in<br />
the electrical circuit, and it may cause a fire.<br />
CAUTION: If a circuit keeps blowing fuses, have<br />
the electrical system inspected for a short circuit<br />
or overload by an authorized <strong>Peterbilt</strong> dealer<br />
as soon as possible. Failure to do so could<br />
cause serious damage to the electrical system<br />
and/or vehicle.<br />
NOTE: If a fuse of the same rating is not available, a<br />
fuse of a lower rating may be temporarily substituted.<br />
You can also use a fuse from a circuit you can<br />
temporarily do without (for example, an accessory<br />
circuit or radio).<br />
Fuse Inspection and Replacement<br />
WARNING! Do not replace a fuse with one of a<br />
higher rating. Doing so may damage the electrical<br />
system and cause a fire.<br />
CAUTION: Before replacing a fuse, turn OFF all<br />
lights and accessories and remove the ignition<br />
key to avoid damaging the electrical system.<br />
