General Safety Guidelines
Failure to repair a malfunction in the electrical
system can result in serious damage due to
vehicle fire. Always let an experienced electrical
technician perform repairs. Always determine the
source of the fault; do not just treat the symptoms.
Always wear eye protection when working around
batteries to prevent the risk of injury due to
contact with sulfuric acid or an explosion.
Before replacing a damaged fuse, turn off all
functions for that circuit. Damage to the circuit can
happen. Always replace fuses and circuit breakers
with the same current/amperage rating. Never
substitute a fuse with foil, wire or nails. Increasing
fuse or circuit breaker ratings or substituting a
fuse with foil, wire or nails may result in electrical
circuit overheating and possibly fire.
Over-charging a poorly charged battery can cause
an explosion, which can lead to serious personal
injury.
