Pontiac 88909774 Fuse,Maxi 60 A

There are two fuse blocks in 1992-98 Eldorado and Seville models. One is located on the left-hand side of the engine compartment, on the wheelwell, and the other is located on the side of the trunk.

Using a test light to check for power at the exposed terminal tips of each fuse is the best method.

To replace a fusible link, the negative battery cable must be disconnected, and the cause of the overload should be identified before installing a new link.

Medium and large fuses can be removed by hand.

The electrical circuits of a car are protected by a combination of fuses, circuit breakers, and fusible links.

Circuit breakers protect specific circuits like power windows and power seats. They reset automatically, so if there is an electrical overload, the circuit will momentarily fail and then come back on. If the circuit does not come back on, it should be checked immediately. Using a voltmeter, each end prong of the circuit breaker should be tested for battery voltage with the negative lead on a good chassis ground. If there is battery voltage only at one end, the circuit breaker needs to be replaced.

If a replacement fuse fails immediately, it should not be replaced again until the underlying issue is identified and resolved, typically due to a short circuit in the wiring caused by a broken or deteriorated wire.
