How To Change Fuse In R33 Skyline?

[Spunky Munky]

Hi fellas,

I tried searching but cannot find anything. I need your help. A few days ago, some short-circuit thing occurred in my R33 and my power to my stereo and clock just turned off. I am betting my marbles that it's a fuse issue and that they need to be replaced - does this sound right?

I recently bought a translated fuse box instruction slip in English so I know what's what now. However, I don't seem to know how to remove the fuses. I've tried pushing them in hoping they'll bounce out and also tried forcefully removing them but cannot. Can someone please give me more specific instructions? Also, should I just purchase 10 amp fuses from Autobarn and replace ONLY the fuse for the stereo or any other as the clock has also gone?

Many thanks.

You pull them out.

Like - just yank on them.

Find the one that is blown, replace it with exactly what comes out (it will be listed on the fuse)

r33's have a small black gripper thing you can use to remove the fuses. its located on the left? side of the fuse box i think. but its not that great.

get a pair of long nose pliers to grab the fuse and pull it out. thats the best way.

and as far as replacing with 10A. Just use the correctly rated fuse for each spot.

Check each fuse as you go, replacing any that are blown.

fairly simple stuff.

edit: beat me to it

Thanks fellas... your help is much appreciated.

You guys think it's the fuse that's caused this? Thanks again.

yep and if you haven't fixed it the fuse is next to the battery.
