40A fuse - where to get besides Chrysler/Jeep?
 
Hi Everyone,
After parting with my '97 Wrangler 4 years ago, I finally got a '05 Wrangler
SE today and love it... When I was test driving it, the stereo didn't work
because he said the fuse was taken out... Uh, ok, no big deal...

When I left the dealership, the odometer said "no fuse", the radio worked
fine, and I brought it to their attention before I left... Some guy did
something under the hood - message gone, I was good to go! That was at 1pm -
fast forward to 7pm... I go to turn the headlights on and realize that I
have no headlights - turns out a 40A fuse was missing (wondering if he added
one or just swapped it)! Just leaving my visit to Wal-Mart, I went to check
and they didn't have those 40A fuses available... To get the head lights
working, I swapped fuses with something I thought I didn't need (ext lights
is how it was marked in the panel)... During my 7 minute drive to Autozone,
I had head lights, but upon arriving, I had my wife tap on the brakes just
for kicks... None. Grrr.... Guess I had a choice of head lights or brake
lights - luckily there was some light left for the day, so I got home fine
opting for brake lights... Picked up a 40A female fuse at Autozone, but
turned out it was too big. Grr...

Two questions now - it was an honest oversight on the dealer's part, and I
should have inspected everything on my part too - just assumed everything
would be functioning... All dealerships are closed on Sundays around here
and I'd really like to utilize my headlights and brakelights... Are there
any places that sell these smaller/specialized type fuse, or is it just made
for Chrysler/Jeep, and second, anybody know why fuses would be removed in
the first place while the Jeeps are waiting for a new owner?

Thanks for any help,
Scott in NH

Is this a very small plastic (orange)fuse with 2 spade terminals? You aid
you picked up a female fuse so I am wondering what kind of fuse you have.

Re: 40A fuse - where to get besides Chrysler/Jeep?
 
it used to be that a dealer had a tech do a new car prep inspetion of all the
new cars that came in and we would get paid 1hr plus to check everything on the
vehicle including a drive
now dealers employ 20 year old kids that do the preps and pay them 7 dollars a
hour( d.c seems to allow this) and they give less that a ---- if they even add
washer solvent to them let alone plug in your iod fuse

Re: 40A fuse - where to get besides Chrysler/Jeep?
 
I've seen them at Autozone autoparts. Are you talking about the BIG or
little ones? I just checked and they have listings for all the fuses on my
96. They don't list brakelight seperatly but do list the radio. Go to
www.autozone.com then fill in the info for your jeep and then drill down
through the catagories to electrical/fusesand then pick what you want. They
even list stores near you by zip code and tell you if they have it in store.
Advanced auto has the same thing.

I've seen them at Autozone autoparts. Are you talking about the BIG or
little ones? I just checked and they have listings for all the fuses on my
96. They don't list brakelight seperatly but do list the radio. Go to
www.autozone.com then fill in the info for your jeep and then drill down
through the catagories to electrical/fusesand then pick what you want. They
even list stores near you by zip code and tell you if they have it in store.
Advanced auto has the same thing.

Re: 40A fuse - where to get besides Chrysler/Jeep?
 
Supposedly they're 'micro' fuses or cartridges... The one I picked up at
autozone
was a larger rectangular one, double the size I need than this 40a is a
square one, probably 1/3"
wide all around... I've never seen fuses like this before and the manual
says you have to get
them at Chrysler, but it also says you have to get oil there, too :) Not
sure if all Wranglers had
two fuses panels, but this is the larger one under the hood vs the one in
the glove box...

In all seriousness, just about ALL auto parts stores have those fuses.
In some, you may have to ask for them at the counter. This is often
true for underhood versions. Not sure which one you need? Bring
another, possibly of a different amp value, for a size check. Better
stores can and will look the item up for you.

Most, if not all, fuses are stock items, not limited to a specific
vehicle brand. Think bulbs! <G>

Re: 40A fuse - where to get besides Chrysler/Jeep?
 
when I bought my f150 supercrew used from a ford dealer, I took it to
another(Chevy) dealer for another "Initial" check. The ford dealer
overlooked that the third brake light was burned out. Chevy got a kick out
of nailing ford on this....;) Just an idea for others upon purchasing.....
It is illegal for a dealer or anyone else to sell a vehicle if the
headlights or brake lights don't work though...fuse or no fuse.....

That's gotta be a state thing. Here in CT, you can sell a vehicle in
any condition.

How is a vehicle sold in your state with damage? What state is it?

Thing is, the OP bought a new vehicle. He should go to the dealership and
have them fix it...
