Learn about Buick Regal 2000-2004 fuse box and relay’s locations, functions, and maintenance tips for optimal vehicle electrical system.
The Buick Regal (2000-2004) is a mid-size sedan that combines classic styling with a comfortable, spacious interior, making it a popular choice for drivers seeking a refined, reliable vehicle. Its body style is a traditional four-door sedan with smooth, rounded lines and a focus on comfort and practicality. Designed for both daily commuting and longer journeys, the Regal includes a variety of electric features, such as power windows, locks, and advanced lighting, enhancing convenience for drivers and passengers alike.
To support these electrical features, the Regal is equipped with a fuse box and relay system that manages power distribution. The main fuse box is located under the dashboard on the passenger side, while another fuse box can be found in the engine compartment for critical systems like ignition and cooling fans. Relays, housed in these areas, control power to larger components, including the fuel pump and AC system. Regular inspection of the fuse box and relays is essential to prevent electrical issues and ensure smooth operation.

WARNING
- Never replace a fuse with one that has a higher amperage rating.
- A fuse with a too-high amperage could damage the electrical part and cause a fire.
- On no account should fuses be repaired (e.g. patched up with tin foil or wire) as this may cause serious damage elsewhere in the electrical circuit or cause a fire.
- If a fuse blows repeatedly, do not keep replacing it. Instead, have the cause for the repeated short circuit or overload tracked and fixed.
- Terminal and harness assignments for individual connectors will vary depending on vehicle equipment level, model, and market.
