In this article we take a look at the third-generation Chevrolet Cavalier, produced from 1995 to 2005. Here you will find the Chevrolet Cavalier 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005 fuse box outline, information on the location of the fuse boxes inside the car and the allocation of each fuse (fuse layout) and relay.
The fuses for the cigarette lighter/power socket in the Chevrolet Cavalier are located in the instrument panel fuse box (see fuses “CIG” (cigarette lighter) and “APO” (accessory power socket, if fitted)).
Fuse box location
