Thermal circuit breakers protect components such as power window, door lock and headlamp level adjustment motors. Some circuit breakers are located in the fuse block. On some models, thermal circuit breakers reset automatically: when an overload occurs in the circuit, the breaker opens immediately, then closes again after it cools down. If the circuit does not return to operation, check it immediately. Normal operation of the thermal circuit breaker confirms that the circuit is good. Some circuit breakers are equipped with buttons for manual reset.
