4. Check the condition of the fuse. If the fuse is blown, replace it with a new one (pic. 1.204).
5. Insert a new fuse with the same current rating into the socket. Check that the fuse is firmly seated in the socket. If the fuse is not firmly inserted, have an authorized Mazda dealer check it. If a spare fuse of the required rating is not available, then as a temporary measure, you can take the correct fuse that protects the electrical device, which does not significantly affect the operation of the car (e.g. a fuse from a socket «MIRROR» (mirror) or «CIGAR» (cigarette lighter)).
Attention! Always replace a blown fuse with a good one of the same current rating. Otherwise, you may damage the vehicle's electrical system.
