Dodge Charger: VEHICLE MAINTENANCE / Fuses
WARNING!
- When replacing a blown fuse, always use an appropriate replacement
fuse with the same amp rating as the original fuse. Never replace a fuse with
another fuse of higher amp rating. Never replace a blown fuse with metal wires
or any other material. Do not place a fuse inside a circuit breaker cavity or
vice versa. Failure to use proper fuses may result in serious personal injury,
fire and/or property damage.
- Before replacing a fuse, make sure that the ignition is off and that
all the other services are switched off and/or disengaged.
- If the replaced fuse blows again, contact an authorized dealer.
- If a general protection fuse for safety systems (air bag system, braking
system), power unit systems (engine system, trans- mission system) or steering
system blows, contact an authorized dealer.
The fuses protect electrical systems against excessive current.
When a device does not work, you must check the fuse element inside the blade
fuse for a break/melt.
Also, please be aware that when using power outlets for extended periods of time
with the engine off may result in vehicle battery discharge.

- Fuse Element
- Blade Fuse with a good/functional fuse element
- Blade fuse with a bad/not functional fuse element (blown fuse)
For normal service, periodic fluid level checks are not required. When the vehicle
is serviced for other reasons the exterior surfaces of the axle assembly should
be inspected...
The Front Power Distribution Center is located in the engine compartment. This
module contains fuses and relays. Fuse cavity location and descriptions are printed
on the inside of the power distribution center cover...
Other information:
The LaneSense system is operational at speeds above 37 mph (60 km/h) and below
112 mph (180 km/h). The LaneSense system uses a forward looking camera to detect
lane markings and measure vehicle position within the lane boundaries.
When both lane markings are detected and the driver unintentionally drifts out
of the lane (no turn signal applied), the LaneSense system provides a haptic warning
in the form of torque applied to the steering wheel to prompt the driver to remain
within the lane boundaries...
There is also a power distribution center located in the trunk under the spare
tire access panel. This center contains fuses and relays. Fuse cavity location and
descriptions are printed on the inside of the power distribution center cover.
CAUTION!
When installing the power distribution center cover, it is important
to ensure the cover is properly positioned and fully latched...
