Three problems related to fuses and circuit breaker have been reported for the 1998 Chevrolet S10. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
About four hours after I parked my chevy s-10 in my carport at 11 p. M. , the truck erupted into flames. The engine compartment is gutted; the front portion of the truck is destroyed. A California department of forestry investigator has determined the cause was likely the vehicleos electrical system. He believes the fire probably started in the fuse box in the engine compartment, then spread to engulf the whole engine. I will be happy to provide you with a copy of his report when it becomes available. The fire threatened the entire building where I live, which includes several businesses and residences. Because of a sprinkler system and fast action by fire crews, the building damage was limited to smoke stains on the wall and ceiling. However, the truck is totaled.
The third brake light is inoperative because of an engineering defect in the wiring system. The dealer and the factory is aware of this problem.
Driver side tail light fuse failed. Yh.
