Car Stereos: Which Fuse, digital multimeter, fuse panel


Question
Hey

My 2003 Sante fe Car Stere, clock and locks don't work. I found the in dash fuse box, but so many fuses, I don't know which one is blown.  Can you help me out.

Answer
Hi Kev,

Check fuses #2 and #12 in the driver's-side dash fuse panel.  When you remove the fuse, you should be able to inspect it and see if it's blown--if it is, there will be a break in the filament.

If neither fuse is blown, there's a quick method of testing the rest of the fuses, but it requires a digital multimeter.  Here's a link:

As detailed in the link, be sure to check the fuse box under the hood also.

Hope this helps!
