Fuse Box Diagram Jeep Liberty (2024)

FAQs

Where are the fuses on a 2004 Jeep Liberty? ›

The fuse boxes are in 2 locations. One is under the hood on the left side of the engine behind the battery. The second is on the driver side of the dashboard. Open the drivers door and look at the side of the dashboard; there you'll see a cover with a tang.

Your fuse box will have two sets of fuses. At the bottom will be 15-amp and 20-amp screw-in fuses with glass faces that are exposed and visible. These fuses will service branch light circuits and outlet circuits. At the top will be 30-amp or 40-amp cartridge main fuses for ovens, laundry rooms, or stoves.

Most vehicles have two fuse boxes, with one under the hood and the other in the cabin. You can usually find the other fuse box in the dashboard on the driver's side, but some manufacturers also place it below the glove box. If the interior fuse box isn't there, you can try checking the luggage compartment.

The fuse in a plug is a safety device designed to protect the lead rather than the appliance. It is a deliberate weak link in a circuit, which will blow if an electrical appliance or extension lead draws too much current due to either an overload or a fault.

Some panels include several spare fuses. If this is the case, pick out a spare that is an exact match in size, color, and labeling—cigarette lighters, for example, usually use 20 amp fuses that have “20A” printed on top.

Which Fuse Controls the Dashboard Gauge? The instrument cluster fuse manages the dashboard gauge of a vehicle. It uses electricity from the car battery to power various electronic components of the dashboard such as the different warning lights, gauges, and alarm systems.

There isn't an interior fuse panel; all of the fuses are located in a box near the windshield on the passenger side of the engine compartment. If you have the auxiliary switches there will be a constant and switched 12 volt wire along with the 4 auxiliary wires under the dash on the passenger side foot well.

How to Check Car Fuses. Your owner's manual will tell you which fuse goes with which system. With your car turned off, open the fuse box and visually check the fuse for the system that's malfunctioning. A blown fuse will be visually obvious.

A switched fuse, on the other hand, only has power when the car is turned on. The main difference between the two is that a constant fuse provides continuous power even when the car is not in use, while a switched fuse only provides power when the car is running.

Understanding the Fuse Box Anatomy

If it's a breaker panel, you'll see columns of circuit breaker switches with levers marked ON/OFF. Whenever the breaker trips, it falls back to the 'OFF' side, so you'll simply flip it back to 'ON'. For a fuse panel, you'll basically have a column of fuses lying side by side.

What are the fuses underneath the hood? ›

The fuse under the hood protects important engine components and accessories like battery, ECU and cooling fan.

Finding Your Circuit Breaker or Fuse Box

Keep an eye out for a metal box, usually flush with the wall. The box will have a metal door to keep the breakers or fuses protected. Check your garage for the circuit breaker or fuse box. It might also be in a storage room, utility room, the basem*nt, or a hallway.

The main fuse box is typically located under the hood, while secondary fuse panels might be inside the car, often near the dashboard or steering wheel. The fuse's wire conductor breaks when the current exceeds the ampere limit, which manufacturers usually define along with different color codes on each fuse.

The interior fuse box is underneath the dashboard on the driver's side. There are two under-hood fuse boxes in the engine compartment. The main fuse box is located on the passenger's side near the battery.

A moulded plug will usually have a pop out fuse holder between the pins. A standard plastic plug typically has the fuse internally mounted and needs to be opened up.

If this is for general purpose power in a car or boat, I would suggest wiring the 12 volt cigarette socket to the battery with a 20 amp fuse in the circuit. If you use a 10 amp fuse, it may not be a high enough rating for accessories such as air compressors and power inverters.

A P0562 code relates to voltage supply drops that can occur in your vehicle. Specifically, the code is activated when the Power Control Module (PCM) detects an irregular drop in the voltage supply. For example, around 13.5 to 15 volts should be supplied to the battery when the engine is on.
