2020 Lincoln Continental Fuse Box | Fuses Diagram – Blown Fuse

The 2020 Lincoln Continental’s electrical system is very complicated, but there is one important part that keeps everything safe and regulates many functions: the switch box. The fuse box is an important place where safety, comfort, and operational systems all come together. It acts as a command center for all the electrical circuits in the car. There are individual fuses in this section that keep the electricity safe from overloads and short circuits. The 2020 Lincoln Continental’s fuse box guidance is like a road map; it shows drivers and mechanics how to work with the car’s complicated electrical system. When problems like a blown fuse happen, it’s important to look at the fuse diagram. This picture guide shows you the exact circuits that each fuse is connected to, making it easy to find and replace them. Figuring out how to get to the fuse box and reading the fuse diagram is not only useful but also necessary to make sure the car works right and keeps you safe on the road.

Power Distribution Box

WARNING: Always disconnect the battery before servicing high-current fuses. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, always replace the cover to the power distribution box before reconnecting the battery or refilling fluid reservoirs.

The power distribution box is in the engine compartment. It has high-current fuses that protect your vehicle’s main electrical systems from overloads.
If you disconnect the battery, you need to reset some features. See Changing the 12V Battery (page 334).2020 Lincoln Continental-Fuse Box Navigation-Fuse Diagram-Blown Fuse-fig 1
