IOD Fuse: Removal

The Ignition-Off Draw (IOD) fuses normal installation location is cavity 15 in the power distribution center. When the vehicle is shipped from the assembly plant the fuse is removed to maintain proper battery voltage during vehicle storage (in some cases). Dealer personnel must install the IOD fuse when the vehicle is being prepared for customer delivery in order to restore full electrical system operation.

2. Unlatch and open the cover of the power distribution center.
3. Remove the IOD fuse from fuse cavity 15  of the power distribution center (Figure ).
4. Store the removed IOD fuse by installing it in the unused fuse storage cavity 11  of the PDC (Figure ).
5. Close and latch the power distribution center cover.
