You can test a car fuse in two simple ways:
- Visual check (quick):
Pull the fuse out and look at the metal strip inside. If it’s broken or burnt, the fuse is blown.
- Multimeter test (best way):
Set a multimeter to continuity or resistance. Touch the probes to both terminals:
Beep / near 0 ohms = good fuse
No reading / infinite resistance = blown fuse
Some cars also have test points on top of the fuse, so you can check it without removing it.
Tip: Always replace with the same amperage rating, never higher.
