Fuse Diagram and Relay: 2017 Hyundai Accent Fuses Guide
The fuse box is an important part of the 2017 Hyundai Accent’s electrical system because it keeps them safe from overloads and short circuits. With its many fuses, each one designed to handle a different electrical circuit, the fuse box controls how power is sent to all parts of the car. When too much power flows through a circuit, a fuse inside the box will blow. This will cut off the circuit and protect the connected parts from damage. To replace a fuse in a 2017 Hyundai Accent, you need to find the broken fuse by looking at the fuse diagram, which usually shows where the fuse is located and how much power it can handle. Once found, the blown fuse can be easily changed with a new one of the same amperage. This keeps the vehicle’s electrical systems safe and working properly. The fuse box needs to be checked and maintained regularly to make sure that the electrical parts of the car keep working.

FUSES
A vehicle’s electrical system is protected from electrical overload damage by fuses. This vehicle has 2 fuse panels, one located in the driver’s side panel bolster, and the other in the engine compartment.
If any of your vehicle’s lights, accessories, or controls do not work, check the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse has blown, the element inside the fuse will be melted. If the electrical system does not work, first check the driver’s side fuse panel. Before replacing a blown fuse, move to a safe place, turn off the engine and all electric devices, and then disconnect the negative battery cable.
Always replace a blown fuse with one of the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this indicates an electrical problem. Avoid using the system involved and immediately consult an authorized HYUNDAI dealer. Three kinds of fuses are used: blade type for lower amperage ratings, cartridge type, and multi fuse for higher amperage ratings.
WARNING – Fuse replacement
- Never replace a fuse with anything but another fuse of the same rating.
- A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and possibly a fire.
- Never install a wire or aluminium foil instead of the proper fuse -even as a temporary repair. It may cause extensive wiring damage and a possible fire.
CAUTION
Do not use a screwdriver or any other metal object to remove fuses because it may cause a short circuit and damage the system.
NOTICE
The actual fuse/relay panel label may differ from the equipped items.
CAUTION
- When replacing a blown fuse or relay with a new one, make sure the new fuse or relay fits tightly into the clips. The incomplete fastening fuse or relay may cause the vehicle wiring and electric systems damage and a possible fire.
- Do not remove fuses, relays, and terminals fastened with bolts or nuts. The fuses, relays, and terminals may be fastened incompletely, and it may cause a possible fire. If fuses, relays, and terminals fastened with bolts or nuts are blown, consult an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
