Dodge Ram Wagon B1500 2001 - IDENTIFICATION POWER DISTRIBUTION

CAUTION:

When replacing a blown fuse, it is important to use only a fuse having the correct amperage rating. The use of a fuse with a rating other than indicated may result in a dangerous electrical system overload. If a properly rated fuse continues to blow, it indicates a problem in the circuit that must be corrected.

The Power Distribution Center is located under the hood near the battery. See Fig. 1 . To identify fuse applications, see POWER DISTRIBUTION FUSE IDENTIFICATION table. To identify power distribution center components, see Fig. 2 .
