Fuses
Fuse block location
To prevent damage to the electrical system from short-circuiting or overloading, each individual circuit is equipped with a fuse. The fuse blocks are located in the passenger compartment and in the engine compartment.
Passenger compartment
The fuse block in the passenger compartment is located in front of the driver’s seat at the position shown in the illustration.
Engine compartment
In the engine compartment, the fuse block is located as shown in the illustration. While pressing the tab (A or B), pull up the cover.
Fuse load capacities
This fuse list shows the names of the electrical systems and their fuse capacities. There are spare fuses in the fuse block in the engine compartment. Always replace a blown fuse with one of the same capacity as the original.

The fuse block does not contain spare 7.5 A, 10 A or 15 A fuses. If one of these fuses burns out, substitute with the following fuse.
- 7.5 A: Outside rearview mirrors
- 10 A: Option
- 15 A: Cigarette lighter
When using a substitute fuse, replace with a fuse of the correct capacity as soon as possi-ble.
Identification of fuse
Fuse replacement
-
Before replacing a fuse, always turn off the electrical item concerned to the fuse and turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” position or put the operation mode in OFF.
-
There is a fuse remover (A) in the engine compartment fuse block.
-
Clamp it on the fuse you wish to remove, and pull the fuse straight out from the fuse block.
- Use the fuse location diagrams and the matching tables, to check the fuse that is related to the problem. If the fuse is not blown, something else must be causing the problem. Have the system inspected by your authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.
-
Fuse is OK
-
Blown fuse
-
- Insert a new fuse of the same capacity securely into the appropriate slot.
CAUTION
- Never use a fuse with a capacity greater than the one listed or any substitute, such as wire, foil etc. This would cause the circuit wiring to heat up and could cause a fire.
- If the replacement fuse blows again after a short time, have the electrical system checked by an authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice to find and correct the cause.
FAQs
The fuse box in the 2021 Mirage G4 is designed to protect the vehicle’s electrical circuits by interrupting the flow of electrical current in the event of an overload or fault.
The fuse box is typically located in the engine compartment, making it accessible for maintenance and troubleshooting.
To access the fuse box, open the hood of your Mirage G4 and locate the plastic cover over the fuse box. Remove the cover to reveal the fuses and their respective labels.
Fuses in the Mirage G4 control various electrical circuits, including those for lights, power windows, audio systems, and more. The fuse box cover usually provides a map of which fuse corresponds to which circuit.
Using the correct amperage-rated fuse is crucial because it ensures that the electrical circuit is adequately protected without overloading or causing damage to the components.
Yes, replacing a blown fuse is a relatively simple DIY task.
You typically need only your hands to replace a fuse. However, having a pair of needle-nose pliers or a fuse puller can make the task easier.
There may be a few spare fuses stored in the fuse box or included with the vehicle’s tool kit, but it’s a good idea to have extra fuses of various amperage ratings on hand.
It is not recommended to use a higher amperage-rated fuse, as it can lead to electrical damage or fire. Always use the specified amperage rating.
Preventing blown fuses involves avoiding overloading circuits, addressing electrical issues promptly, and regular vehicle maintenance.
If a fuse keeps blowing, it may indicate an underlying electrical problem. It’s best to consult a professional mechanic to diagnose and fix the issue.
Check with your local Mitsubishi dealership or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) for any recalls or known issues related to fuses in your specific model year.
It’s possible to add accessories, but it’s essential to ensure they don’t overload the existing circuits or compromise safety. Consult with a professional for proper installation.
It’s not typically necessary to disconnect the battery when replacing a fuse, but it may be a good safety practice when working on electrical components.
Regularly inspecting the fuses during routine maintenance checks or when troubleshooting electrical issues is a good practice to ensure they are in good condition.
