TRUNK RELEASE/OPEN GAGE FUSE INFORMATION

ACTIVATING THE TRUNK RELEASE BUTTON MAY CAUSE THE 10 AMP GAGE FUSE TO OPEN ON 1982 CIMARRONS BUILT THROUGH B.C. NO. 620332. WHEN DIAGNOSING THIS CONDITION, FIRST CHECK CIRCUIT #39 (REFER TO PAGE 8A-13 OF THE CIMARRON SERVICE MANUAL FOR COMPONENTS ON THIS CIRCUIT) FOR SHORTS. IF NO SHORTS ARE DETECTED, A 20 AMP GAGE FUSE SHOULD BE INSTALLED. THE TRUNK RELEASE FEED HAS BEEN RELOCATED TO THE 30 AMP A/C FUSE (CIRCUIT #50) ON CIMARRONS BUILT AFTER B.C. NO. 620332.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
