how to check for a blown fuse in Volvo XC60 536 (2017-Present)?

Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather necessary tools: fuse puller or pliers, multimeter.
• Ensure the vehicle is off and keys are removed from the ignition.

2. Locate and Access the Fuse Box

• Open the hood or passenger compartment as needed based on the owner's manual.
• Remove any covers protecting the fuse box by releasing the retaining clips or screws.

3. Inspect the Fuses

• Use a fuse puller or pliers to carefully remove the suspected blown fuse.
• Visually inspect the fuse for a broken filament or discoloration.

4. Test with a Multimeter

• Set the multimeter to continuity mode.
• Insert the probes into the terminals of the fuse. A reading of zero indicates continuity; no reading indicates a blown fuse.

5. Replace the Fuse

• If the fuse is blown, replace it with a new fuse of the same amperage rating (found on the fuse itself or in the manual).
• Ensure the replacement fuse is seated properly in the fuse box.

6. Reassemble the Fuse Box

• Reattach any covers or panels removed to access the fuses.
• Close the hood or compartment securely.
