If your wanting to find a bad fuse in your vehicle start with the fuse panel which will be located somewhere under your dash. Check your owners manual to show you where it is. On most modern cars you can also find a fuse panel located under the hood which contains all of your engine managment fuses. The under the dash fuse panel will contain all of your fuses for lights, radio, horn, wipers etc. so if your car is running a blown fuse will probably be under the dash. As for checking each fuse there should be a diagram either in your owners manual or each fuse in the panel will have what its for stamped below it. You can always take your vehicle to either Autozone or Advanced auto and they will usually check the fuse for you for free. Hope this helps.

Just about every part in a car can go bad, some alot more than others. A fuse block can have a "open circuit"or it can overheat from a "short". all cars have "pattern failures" that are known, check with another mechanic to find out if he is familiar with your car having fuse blocks go bad, still, any part can fail on a car, remember it's all "man made"

How do you know if car fuses are bad?

If a component or an accessory such as the radio, or lights doesn't work, than that is a good sign a fuse is blown. When you suspect that a fuse is bad, find out where it is in your owners manual. Most cars have 2 fuse boxes. One should be somewhere under the hood. The other should be located behind a panel under the dashboard on either the drivers, or passenger side of the car. When you find the right fuse box, look at the diagram on the lid of the fuse box, study it carefully, and determine which fuse is the one that you are looking for, such as; fuel pump, or headlamps. If there isn't a diagram, check the owners manual, it should have a list numbering them. When you find the fuse, gently pull it out of its place, and inspect it. You will see a bridge going from one side of the fuse to the other. If the bridge is connected, that the fuse is fine. If there is a gap in the bridge, than that means the fuse is bad. If you are unsure, pull out another fuse from a part that you know works; and compare them. Be sure to replace a fuse of the same amperage (the number on the top of the fuse) if you replace it your self.
