    Guys,
    Any idea how to fix a blown fuse. This Sunday I suddenly faced this issue of no power coming from the power plug.
    Took it to Mohandas Motors yesterday and they said a fuse was blown and fixed it in 5mins and gave back. But I would like to avoid SC visits for such jobs.
    :anyone

    Check manual they have mentioned where the fuse boxes are located(Linea has 2 ) and also the position of each fuse, type and subsystem it controls.

    Just keep few Fuses with you with 10, 15, 20 amp ratings and whenever a fuse is blown just replace it... alternatively in emergencies you can use wires to connect in place of fuse..

    When you lift the headrest you can see a small hole on the side of the plastic base where the steel rods go in. IIRC you need to press in with a nail or some sharp pointed object to actually lift the headrest off. :up

    Well, replacing fuse in Linea is very easy, its located at two locations, 1 near battery for external connections and 2nd under the steering.
    If required I can do a DIY on this too ..its very simple, I have already blown my HU fuse 3 times ::V and replaced it myself, it costs 6rs for 10A fuse :D and takes less than 5 mins to replace.

    Forget that handle like thing. Grab the bottom edge and yank upwards. Takes a bit of force, but will not break.
