Replace the damaged fuses inside the engine compartment; here’s how to change them. Open the car door, pull up the engine compartment release lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, and lift the front bonnet, securing it. Open the plastic cover above the battery, and remove it from the fuse box. Once the box is exposed, replace the damaged fuses with new ones (use suitable pliers to pull out the fuses).

After maintenance, refit the fuse box cover and close the front bonnet. Test the vehicle.
