Fuse: Testing and Inspection
1999 Hyundai Elantra Wagon L4-2.0LSECTION Testing and Inspection
When a fuse is blown, there are two probable causes as follows. Which of the two causes is responsible can be easily determined by visual check after removing the fuses.

1. Fuse blown due to over-current.
Prior to replacing the fuse with a new one, check the circuit for a short and the related parts for abnormal condition. Only after the correction of a short or replacement of abnormal parts, should a fuse with same ampere rating be installed.

2. Fuse blown due to repeated current on-off.
Normally, this type of problem occurs after fairly long period of use and hence is less frequent than the above type. In this case, you may simply replace with a new fuse of the same capacity.

CAUTION: A blade type fuse is identified by the numbered value in amperes. If the fuse is burnt-out, be sure to replace a fuse with the same ampere rating. If a fuse of higher capacity than specified is used, parts may be damaged and the danger of fire also exists. To remove or insert a fuse, please use the fuse puller in the fuse box.
INSPECTION

1. Check for a burnt fusible link with an ohmmeter.
2. If a fusible link burns out, there is a short or some other problem in the circuit. Carefully determine the cause and correct it before replacing the fusible link.
CAUTION: The fusible link will burn out within 15 seconds if a higher than specified current flows through the circuit.

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- β’ You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- β’ Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- β’ The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- β’ You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- β’ You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
