Circuit breakers (thermal relays) — general information

Thermal relays are used to protect components such as electric windows, door locks and headlight adjustment. Some of the circuit breakers are housed in a fuse box. The return of thermal relays to their original state on some models is carried out automatically, i.e. when an overload occurs in the circuit, the thermal relay instantly opens, then, after cooling, returns to its original state. If the circuit does not return to working position, it should be checked immediately. The normal functioning of the thermal relay confirms the health of the circuit. Some of the breakers are equipped with push buttons for manual forced reset.
