Fuses & Circuit Breakers: Notes

Vehicle wiring is protected from short circuits by a combination of fuses, circuit breakers, and fusible thermal links. This greatly reduces the chance of fires should a electrical overload occur.

In the event of an electrical overload, the windshield wipers will remain stopped until motor cools off. The headlight will flash on/off or remains off in some cases as both are protected by circuit breakers. If such occurs, have the system inspected immediately to correct the cause of overloading.
