Fuses and relays in Lada Kalina, electrical diagrams

If one or another electrical device in your Kalina has stopped working - headlights, low or high beams, cigarette lighter, stove, turn signals, as well as other devices, then the first thing you need to do is find the cause of the malfunction, in particular, check the fuses and relays in the Lada Kalina.

The first thing to check in electrical circuits is the fuses, because they are the weakest point of the circuit and are usually the first to fail. Read on to learn about which fuses do what in the Lada Kalina, as well as where the relays are located and how to find the right one.

If you do not want to get into an unpleasant situation when, due to a blown fuse, one or another device refuses to work, but you don’t have a whole one at hand, it is useful to make it a rule to always carry with you a set consisting of different fuses.

For the Lada Kalina, you can buy a similar set at any auto store that sells auto parts for domestic cars. It takes up very little space, but its benefits in case of failure will significantly reduce your time to fix the problem.

conclusions

If a relay fails or a fuse melts in the unit on a Lada Kalina, the electrical circuits that are responsible for the operation of the unit may fail. Thus, before repairing the mechanical part, it is worth checking the condition of the fuse. The combustion of these parts occurs due to a short circuit in the Kalina on-board network.

Modern car enthusiasts rarely use this socket for its intended purpose. Additional devices such as charging for a phone or other devices are connected to the cigarette lighter socket. The most common:

  • electric compressor;
  • GPS navigator for route calculation;
  • DVR;
  • charger for mobile phone, laptop or tablet.

Over time, this device may break down: fuses may burn out or wires may melt. This is fraught with a lot of inconvenience even for a non-smoking driver. How to replace the cigarette lighter fuse of a Lada Kalina car, where the mounting block is located and other nuances of the work are described below.

Relay and fuse box

The fuses in the Lada Kalina are located under the dashboard, in a block located to the left of the steering wheel. To get to it, you need to open the cover in which the headlight switch is built in. The lid has latches; if you pull it towards you by the upper part, it will open and fold down (its lower part is fixed on an axis).

Relay and fuse box in Lada Kalina

F1 (10 A) - immobilizer, dashboard lamps and sensors, reversing light, turn signals . If any of the gauges on your dashboard stop working, or one or all of the warning lights stop lighting up, check that fuse, as well as the gauges or bulbs themselves. If the rear white light does not come on when you engage reverse gear, it could also be this fuse or the reverse switch.

The reverse switch is located on the transmission, to change it you will most likely need to remove the engine cover to get to it. Located on the left side in the direction of travel on the rear of the gearbox. If the turn signals do not work and this fuse is intact, also check relay K5, the turn signal control knob, its connector, as well as the turn signal lamps themselves.

F2 (30 A) - electric windows . If the power windows stop working, check this fuse, as well as relay K2. If the fuse and relay are good, there could be a number of reasons. First, try pressing the power window button and slamming the door. If the mechanism “bites” when the glass is raised, this may help.

Otherwise, you need to disassemble the casing and look at the mechanism. When disassembling, you need to check the serviceability of the gears and all components of the window lifter, including the motor brushes. It could also be a problem with the power window module. It is located in the left rear door; if there is something wrong with it, then most likely you will have to change this module to a working one.

F3 (10 A) - alarm.

If the emergency lights do not work and this fuse is good, check relay K5. If your left or right turn signals come on and are constantly on, even when you turn off the ignition, this is a factory defect. In this case, it is necessary to replace the body electronics control unit. This can be done in official salons.

F4 (20 A) - windshield wiper, heated rear window . If the windshield wipers do not work and this fuse is intact, also check relays K4 and K6. The issue may be in the windshield wiper motor or its mechanism. Check the wiper switch and its connector.

If the rear window heating does not work, check fuse F8, the heater terminals, their contacts, as well as the contacts of this fuse and relay K6. Another issue could be poor contact on the body. The wiring ground is connected to the body under the dashboard. If there is poor or oxidized contact in this area, it can also cause problems with the correct readings on the panel instruments.

F5 (25 A) - heater, electric power steering, windshield washer . If this fuse and relay K4 are intact and the stove does not work, the problem may be in its electric motor (brushes) or the power button, as well as its contacts. If the electric power steering does not work, this fuse and fuse F31 are intact, then it is better to contact a workshop, because it will be difficult to find and fix this malfunction yourself.

F6 (20 A) - sound signal.

If this fuse and relay K8 are working, but the signal does not work, check the horn itself. It is located under the front bumper near the radiator. Sometimes it is enough to turn the tone adjustment screw. The location is inconvenient because water can easily get into it; alternatively, you can reinstall it in a higher place, or install another horn that is less sensitive to water and moisture.

F7 (10A) - LCD dashboard indicator, brake lights, interior lighting . If your brake lights don't work, check this fuse. If it is intact, check the brake light switch, which is located at the base of the brake pedal; it is a round piece with two wires connected to its terminals. If this is the case, then replacing it will help. Costs about 100 rubles. Also check the bulbs in the taillights. If one brake light does not light, then the lamp is most likely burned out. If both signals do not light up, then most likely the problem is in the relay, fuse or switch.

F8 (20 A) - rear window heating element . If the rear window does not fog up when the heating is on, check this fuse, relays K4 and K10, and fuse F4.

F9 (5 A) - right side lamps, lamp in the glove box . If the right side does not work - the right front and right rear lights do not light up, check this fuse, as well as the lamps themselves.

F10 (5 A) - left side lamps, control lamp for turning on the lighting on the dashboard, license plate lamps . Similar to the previous one.

F11 (7.5 A) - rear fog lamps.

F12 (7.5 A) - right low beam lamp, right headlight range control motor . F13 (7.5 A) - left low beam lamp, left headlight range control motor . If one of the low beam headlights does not light, check one of these fuses, as well as the lamp itself. If both headlights do not work, check the serviceability of the light switch, its connector, as well as the lamps themselves (it also happens that both burn out at the same time).

F14 (10 A) - right high beam lamp, high beam indicator lamp on the dashboard . F15 (10 A) - left high beam lamp . If the high beams do not work, also check relay K7. If it fails, replace it. It could also be the lamps themselves, the wiring, the high beam switch and its connector.

F16, 17 (10 A) - front fog lamps.

F18 (15 A) - heated seats.

F19 (10 A) - ABS . If the fuse is good, but the ABS does not work, most likely one of its mechanisms has stopped working. If the ABS warning light on the dashboard is on, it means one of its elements has failed. It is necessary to diagnose the fault codes and eliminate the cause.

F20 (15 A) - cigarette lighter . Frequent problems with Kalina's cigarette lighter can be caused by its non-standard configuration. When connecting various connectors, proper fixation does not occur, so there may be short circuits, which causes the fuse to fail. Alternatively, you can install an additional connector or use a splitter with 12 V sockets.

F21 (10 A) - gearbox reverse lock.

F22 (15 A) - alarm control unit.

F23 - reserve F24 - reserve F25 - reserve

F26 (25 A) - ABS . Same as F19.

F27 (5 A) - spare F28 (7.5 A) - spare F29 (10 A) - spare F30 (20 A) - spare

F31 (50 A) - electric power steering . If the steering wheel is difficult to turn, check this fuse as well as fuse F5. If the cause of the malfunction cannot be determined, contact a car service center, because steering is a serious thing that affects safety. There may be something wrong with the control unit or wiring.
