NISSAN FUSES GUIDE
Two types of fuses are used. Type OA is used in the fuse boxes in the engine compartment. Type OB is used in the passenger compartment and engine compartment fuse boxes. Type OA fuses are provided as spare fuses. There are no spare fuses in the engine compartment.
If a type OA fuse is used to replace a type OB fuse, the type OA fuse will not be level with the fuse pocket as shown in the illustration.
This will not affect the performance of the fuse. Make sure the fuse is installed in the fuse box securely.
Type OB fuses cannot be installed in the underhood fuse boxes. Only use type OA fuses in the underhood fuse boxes.
NOTE:
Your vehicle may not be equipped with all fuses listed on the fuse label.
