In this article, you will find information about the fuses of the Buick LaCrosse (models 2014, 2015, and 2016), including diagrams of the fuse boxes, a list of fuses and relays, their designation, and the location of the fuse blocks within the vehicle.
Checking and Replacing Fuses in Buick LaCrosse
The wiring circuits in the vehicle are protected from short circuits by a combination of fuses and circuit breakers. This greatly reduces the chance of damage caused by electrical problems.
To check a fuse, look at the silver-colored band inside the fuse. If the band is broken or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure to replace a bad fuse with a new one of the identical size and rating. Fuses of the same amperage can be temporarily borrowed from another fuse location, if a fuse goes out. Replace the fuse as soon as possible.
Caution!
- Data on the replacement fuse must match the data on the defective fuse.
- Before replacing a fuse, turn every vehicle electrical switch off.
Location of Fuse Boxes
Instrument Panel Fuse Block:
The instrument panel fuse block is located in the instrument panel, on the driver side of the vehicle. To access the fuses, open the fuse panel door by pulling down at the top. Press in on the sides of the door to release it from the instrument panel. Pull the door toward you to release it from the hinge.
Engine Compartment Fuse Block:
To remove the fuse block cover, squeeze the three retaining clips on the cover and lift it straight up.
