How to find a Blown fuse in your vehicle (Test Light Basics Tutorial)

Hey Guys and Galls!

This is a tutorial/how to video about checking and finding blown fuses in your vehicle. In this video, I will teach you how to use a test light to quickly check and find blown fuses in your car.

Firstly I talk through the basics of setting up the test light and checking a good fuse and also what a blown fuse will look like when tested with a test light.

Then finding a blown fuse in the vehicle comes next, you need to find out what isn't working, say the cigarette lighter is not supplying power to your phone charger. Then you will need to locate the location of the fuse box in your vehicle and use the fuse diagram to test and replace the faulty fuse. By using the test light you can quickly and easily test any fuse. Remember that the cigarette lighter socket in a car is often turned on and off with the ignition, so to test the fuse for the cigarette lighter correctly you will need to turn the ignition on!

When removing fuses from the holder you need to ensure you turn off the ignition before removing, to avoid any potential damage. If a fuse continuously blows within a short matter of time do not keep replacing it! You need to be checking for a potential short circuit in the wiring or you are continuously overloading the circuit with too much current than it can handle!
