Honda S2000 (2008 year). Instruction - part 15

The vehicle’s fuses are contained in
three fuse boxes.

The primary under-hood fuse box is
on the passenger’s side next to the
battery. To open it, push the two tabs
as shown.

The auxiliary under-hood fuse box is
on the driver’s side, near the brake
fluid reservoir. To open it, push the
tab on each side, and remove the lid.

The interior fuse box is underneath
the dashboard on the driver’s side.
To open it, turn the knob.

If something electrical in your
vehicle stops working, check for a
blown fuse first. Determine from the
chart on pages

and

, or the

diagram on the fuse box lid, which
fuse or fuses control that device.
Check those fuses first, but check all
the fuses before deciding that a
blown fuse is the cause. Replace any
blown fuses, and check if the device
works.

Turn the ignition switch to the
LOCK (0) position. Make sure the
headlights and all other
accessories are off.

Remove the cover from the fuse
box.

Check each of the large fuses in
the primary under-hood fuse box
by looking through the top at the
wire inside. Removing these fuses
requires a Phillips-head
screwdriver.

Check the smaller fuses in the
under-hood fuse boxes and all the
fuses in the interior fuse box by
pulling out each one with the fuse
puller provided in the interior fuse
box.

If you cannot drive the vehicle
without fixing the problem, and you
do not have a spare fuse, take a fuse
of the same rating or a lower rating
from one of the other circuits. Make
sure you can do without that circuit
temporarily (such as the accessory
power socket or radio).

If you replace the blown fuse with a
spare fuse that has a lower rating, it
might blow out again. This does not
indicate anything wrong. Replace the
fuse with one of the correct rating as
soon as you can.

If the replacement fuse of the
same rating blows in a short time,
there is probably a serious
electrical problem with your
vehicle. Leave the blown fuse in
that circuit, and have your vehicle
checked by a qualified technician.

Look for a blown wire inside the
fuse. If it is blown, replace it with
one of the spare fuses of the same
rating or lower.

Replacing a f use with one that has a
higher rating greatly increases the
chances of damaging the electrical
system. If you do not have a
replacement f use with the proper rating
f or the circuit, install one with a lower
rating.

If the radio fuse is removed, the
audio system will disable itself. The
next time you turn on the radio you
will see ‘‘CODE’’ (U.S. model) or
‘‘Code’’ (Canadian model) in the
frequency display. Use the preset
buttons to enter the five-digit code
(see page

).

If the fuse for the instrument panel
is removed, the clock setting in the
instrument panel will be canceled. To
reset the time, see page

If your vehicle needs to be towed,
call a professional towing service or
organization. Never tow your vehicle
with just a rope or chain. It is very
dangerous.

The operator will load

your vehicle on the back of a truck.
Any other method of towing will
damage the drive system. When you
contact the towing agency, inform
them a flat-bed is required.

If your vehicle gets stuck in sand,
mud, or snow, call a towing service
to pull it out (see the previous
column).

For very short distances, such as
freeing the vehicle, you can use the
detachable towing hook that mounts
on the anchors in the front and rear
bumpers.

To use the towing hook:

Remove the cover from the
bumper.

Using the wheel nut wrench,
fasten the extension into the bolt
hole in the anchor.

Remove the towing hook, hook
extension, and wheel nut wrench
from the tool box.

Your vehicle has several identifying
numbers located in various places.

The vehicle identification number
(VIN) is the 17-digit number your
dealer uses to register your vehicle
for warranty purposes. It is also
necessary for licensing and insuring
your vehicle. The easiest place to
find the VIN is on a plate fastened to
the top of the dashboard. You can
see it by looking through the
windshield on the driver’s side. It is
also on the certification label
attached to the driver’s doorjamb,
and is stamped on the engine
compartment bulkhead. The VIN is
also provided in bar code on the
certification label.

Quality grades can be found where
applicable on the tire sidewall
between tread shoulder and
maximum section width. For
example:

All passenger car tires must conform
to Federal Safety Requirements in
addition to these grades.

The treadwear grade is a compara-
tive rating based on the wear rate of
the tire when tested under controlled
conditions on a specified government
test course. For example, a tire
graded 150 would wear one and one-
half (1 1/2) times as well on the
government course as a tire graded
100. The relative performance of
tires depends upon the actual condi-
tions of their use, however, and may
depart significantly from the norm
due to variations in driving habits,
service practices and differences in
road characteristics and climate.

The traction grades, from highest to
lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. Those
grades represent the tire’s ability to
stop on wet pavement as measured
under controlled conditions on
specified government test surfaces
of asphalt and concrete. A tire
marked C may have poor traction
performance.

Warning: The traction grade
assigned to this tire is based on
straight-ahead braking traction tests,
and does not include acceleration,
cornering, hydroplaning, or peak
traction characteristics.

The tires on your vehicle meet all
U.S. Federal Safety Requirements.
All tires are also graded for
treadwear, traction, and temperature
performance according to
Department of Transportation
(DOT) standards. The following
explains these gradings.

The temperature grades are A (the
highest), B, and C, representing the
tire’s resistance to the generation of
heat and its ability to dissipate heat
when tested under controlled
conditions on a specified indoor
laboratory test wheel. Sustained high
temperature can cause the material
of the tire to degenerate and reduce
tire life, and excessive temperature
can lead to sudden tire failure. The
grade C corresponds to a level of
performance which all passenger car
tires must meet under the Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No.
109. Grades B and A represent
higher levels of performance on the
laboratory test wheel than the
minimum required by law.

Warning: The temperature grade for
this tire is established for a tire that
is properly inflated and not
overloaded. Excessive speed,
underinflation, or excessive loading,
either separately or in combination,
can cause heat buildup and possible
tire failure.

The tires that came on your vehicle
have a number of markings. Those
you should be aware of are described
below.

Manufacturer’s
identification mark.

This indicates that the tire
meets all requirements of
the U.S. Department of
Transportation.

The tire identification number (TIN)
is a group of numbers and letters
that look like the following example.
TIN is located on the sidewall of the
tire.

Load index (a numerical code
associated with the maximum
load the tire can carry).

Whenever tires are replaced, they
should be replaced with tires of the
same size. Following is an example
of tire size with an explanation of
what each component means.

Speed symbol (an
alphabetical code indicating
the maximum speed rating).

Tire width in millimeters.

Aspect ratio (the tire’s section
height as a percentage of its
width).

Tire construction code (R
indicates radial).

Rim diameter in inches.
