Main Fuse Box/PDM
The main fuse box, also known as the power distribution module, or PDM, is located under the hood on the left front fender just forward of the bulkhead module. See Fig.. To open the fuse box, pull down on the wire clips holding the lid on the fuse box.
A sticker inside the lid of the fuse box shows the locations of the fuses and describes the circuit(s) that each fuse protects (see Fig.). See Table. for descriptions of a typical set of fuses. The fuses in the main fuse box are mini blade-type fuses. Battery power fuses, located near the batteries, are bolt-in megafuses.
Because the electrical system is multiplexed, no relays are needed. The multiplexing module performs the functions normally provided by relays.
