Fuses and Circuit Breakers

The wiring circuits in the vehicle are protected from short circuits by a combination of fuses and circuit breakers.
This greatly reduces the chance of damage caused by electrical problems.

Danger
Fuses and circuit breakers are marked with their ampere rating. Do not exceed the specified amperage rating when replacing fuses and circuit breakers. Use of an oversized fuse or circuit breaker can result in a vehicle fire. You and others could be seriously injured or killed.

Warning
Installation or use of fuses that do not meet GM’s original fuse specifications is dangerous. The fuses could fail, and result in a fire. You or others could be injured or killed, and the vehicle could be damaged.

See Accessories and Modifications  and General Information.

To check or replace a blown fuse, see Electrical System Overload .

FAQs

What is the purpose of fuses in my Chevrolet Bolt EV?

Fuses protect your Bolt EV’s electrical circuits from overloads and prevent damage to essential components by interrupting the circuit if an excessive current runs through it.

Where is the fuse box located in the 2023 Chevrolet Bolt EV?

The fuse box in the Bolt EV is usually positioned in the vehicle’s interior, near the driver’s side or in the cabin. The precise location can be found in your owner’s manual.

How do I access the fuse box in my Bolt EV?

You can access the fuse box by removing the lid, which typically requires the use of a tool such as a screwdriver or a coin to open.

What types of fuses are used in the Bolt EV?

Blade-type fuses, which are prevalent in modern automobiles, are used in the Bolt EV.

How do I identify a blown fuse?

A blown fuse will have a broken or melted wire inside. To test for continuity, visually verify the fuses or use a multimeter.

What are the most common reasons for a fuse to blow in my Bolt EV?

Electrical defects, overloading a circuit, or a malfunctioning component are the most typical causes of blown fuses.

How can I determine which fuse protects a specific circuit in my Bolt EV?

Refer to your owner’s manual or fuse box lid for a diagram and labeling indicating which fuse protects which circuit.

Can I replace a blown fuse myself?

Yes, you can change a blown fuse on your own. It’s a straightforward technique. Simply use the appropriate amperage-rated replacement fuse.

What tools do I need to replace a fuse in my Bolt EV?

A set of needle-nose pliers is usually required to grip and remove the fuse, as well as a fuse puller or a flathead screwdriver to extract the fuse from its holder.

Is there a difference between standard automotive fuses and mini-fuses?

– Yes, mini-fuses are smaller than regular fuses and have a lower current rating. Use the appropriate kind for your Bolt EV.

Can I upgrade the fuses in my Bolt EV for added protection?

Fuse upgrades are not suggested unless specified in the owner’s manual or by a skilled technician. Using fuses with greater amperage ratings can endanger your safety.

What precautions should I take when working with fuses and the fuse box?

Before working with fuses, always disconnect the vehicle’s battery and wear suitable safety equipment. Ascertain that the car is turned off and stationary.

Are there any specific maintenance tasks related to the fuse box in the Bolt EV?

Check for blown fuses on a regular basis and replace them as needed. Keep the area around the fuse box clean to keep debris out.

Can I still drive my Bolt EV if a fuse is blown?

It is determined by the circuit that the blown fuse safeguards. Non-essential features may be disabled by blown fuses, while others may prevent the car from starting.

Where can I find a detailed fuse diagram for my Bolt EV?

A fuse diagram is normally found in your owner’s handbook or on the inside of the fuse box cover. Consult your Chevrolet dealership or an online resource if it is missing or unclear.
