How do you replace a fuse?

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Fuse box

Let's see how to replace a fuse: the explanation is perfect and very accurate, summarizing in a few seconds what many videos explain in 10 minutes: we identify the burnt fuse by looking at the internal metal tab; with a screwdriver or with the plastic tweezers that are often found in the fuse box, we gently extract the old one. We manually insert the new fuse, which must be identical to the one used (same color, same number of amperes printed on it). Done! The hardest part is often finding the fuse box: usually there are two of them, one inside the passenger compartment (where most of the service fuses are concentrated) and one in the engine compartment, which contains fuses related to the mechanical part. The replacement itself is a very simple operation.
