Fuse Boxes

The automotive Fuse Box, commonly known as the Fuse Block or Fuse Terminal or Fuse Panel, is part of the electrical system of your vehicle. It holds most of the electrical fuses that protect the electronics from voltage spikes, short circuits, and other mishaps. Since all the circuits are routed through the fuse block, all of the fuses can be checked at once as part of routine maintenance. There are lots of reasons to shop for a new fuse block. If you’re restoring a classic barn find, it’s a good idea to update the electrical system, especially since the old wiring and fuses may have degraded over time. If you’re adding additional electronics to the vehicle—such as a winch, air compressor, mobile entertainment, or a performance ignition system—you may need a larger fuse block to handle any additional circuits.
