In case of an overload in the circuits from the battery, the fusible I nks
are designed to melt before damage to the engine wiring harness oc< urs.
Headlight and other electrical component failure usually requires che ;king
the fusible links for melting. Fusible links are located in the engine c >m-
partment next to the battery.
The fusible link is replaced in a similar manner as the regular fus$, but a
removal tool is not required.
## CAUTION
Never install a wire in place of a fusible link. Extensive damage
and fire may occur.
