How to Identify a Blown Fuse in Your Vehicle

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Fuse box

There are various methods to identify a blown fuse. The video shows how to check if the filament is broken, if there is a small gap, or if the plastic is melted or discoloured. Sometimes, however, a fuse may look good to the naked eye but is broken under the plastic, in a hidden spot; it must therefore be tested with a multimeter. Remember that not all fuses are located under the dashboard; always check the maps on the cover before starting to work. The most important advice is not to put a 20A fuse where there was originally a 10A; if there was a 10A fuse until that moment, there was a very valid reason.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
