In this article, you will find information about the fuses of the Chevrolet Volt (models 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015), 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 Chevy Volt
Replace a bad fuse with a new one of the identical size and rating. A fuse puller is located in the engine compartment fuse block.
Caution!
Do not exceed the specified amperage rating when replacing fuses and circuit breakers. Use of an oversized fuse or circuit breaker can result in a vehicle fire.
Location of Fuse Boxes
Instrument Panel Fuse Block (Left Side): The instrument panel fuse block is on the driver side end of the instrument panel. To access the fuses, open the fuse panel door by pulling out. To reinstall the door, insert the bottom tab first, then push the door back into its original location.
Instrument Panel Fuse Block (Right Side): The instrument panel fuse block is on the passenger side end of the instrument panel. To access the fuses, open the fuse panel door by pulling out.
Engine Compartment Fuse Block: To open the fuse block cover, press the clips at the front and back and rotate the cover up to the side.
Rear Compartment Fuse Block: The rear compartment fuse block is on the left side of the rear compartment behind a removable cover. Open the latch to remove the cover and access the fuse block.
