Citroen C3: Changing a fuse / Changing a fuse

Before changing a fuse:

  • Identify the cause of the fault and fix it.
  • Stop all power consumption.
  • Immobilise the vehicle and switch the ignition off.
  • Identify the defective fuse using the current allocation tables and diagrams.

To replace a fuse, it is essential to:

  • Use the special tweezers to extract the fuse from its housing and check the condition of its filament.
  • Always replace the failed fuse with a fuse of the same rating (same colour); use of a different rating may cause malfunctions - risk of fire!

If the fault recurs after replacing a fuse, have the electrical system checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
