2001 pt cruiser fuse box

[balasubas999]

I'm looking where the fuse box is. I know there is one below the wheel but the as per forum says there is another one under the hood...but that's the one I can't find. Is there anyone has the picture of it so I can replace the a/c fuse which is #11. Thanks a lot

Do you know or can you see the threaded large bolt where you should hook up the positive cable when you do a jump start? That's one end of the fuse box under the hood.

Do you know how to take off the air filter box? You need to take that apart to get at the black box which has the relays and fuses. I have pictures of everything but that.

This is the picture of the box without the cover (of course) that's in the owners manual. The box itself is 180 degrees opposite of the picture.



If you look closely, you can see the black oblong box under my aftermarket air filter and next to the Ahooga horn under the chrome tube of that filter. The red plastic piece is the positive threaded bolt cover I was talking about for the jumper cable.

Thanks! I know where the positive cable is to jump start. I will check.

Sorry for the thread re-birth (but at least we get to see your engine bay again Cruizer!)

what are the fuse numbers coresponding to?

I am looking for the 12v socket fuse as all my 12v sockets don't work!

Hopefully someone will be along to answer your question. I'm in the rehab of the nursing home recovering after open heart surgery and my owners manual which has all the information about what all the fuses do is at home.

If, when you say 12v socket, you mean the "power outlets" then if you will simply check the diagram (on one page) and the corresponding written description (on the following page) in your drivers manual it will show you where the fuse is. This kind of info is one of the many things the manuals are for. Everyone should read them from cover to cover. If you don't have a manual, then simply pull the PDC (underhood fuse box) cover and the diagrams with descriptions are printed on the underside of the cover. They have varied slightly over the years, but your cover will give you the correct info for your vehicle.

Below I have posted the PDC info from my PT. The fuse you are talking about is labeled "PWR 20a" (a yellow fuse) across from the large "spare" in my diagram. That is if you are talking about the power outlets.
