Front power distribution box

The front power distribution box is
located in the engine compartment.
The power distribution box contains
high-current fuses that protect your
vehicle’s main electrical systems
from overloads.

Always disconnect the battery before servicing high current
fuses.

To reduce risk of electrical shock, always replace the cover to
the Power Distribution Box before reconnecting the battery or

refilling fluid reservoirs.

If the battery has been disconnected and reconnected, refer to the
Battery section of the Maintenance and specifications chapter.
