The Chrysler New Yorker (1993-1997) comes in a sleek, full-size sedan body style, known for its luxury-focused design and spacious interior. Key features include power-adjustable seats, automatic climate control, and an advanced sound system for its time. The car also offers power windows, a digital dashboard, and enhanced safety features like airbags and anti-lock brakes.
The electrical systems powering these features are managed by the fuse box and relays, located in the engine compartment and under the dashboard. The fuse box protects essential components like lighting, radio, and climate control by preventing electrical overloads through fuses that break when excessive current flows through.
Relays control high-power functions such as the fuel pump, windshield wipers, and starter motor. These relays act as switches that allow low-current circuits to operate higher-current devices. If a relay fails, critical systems like the engine start or fuel delivery may be affected.
Regular maintenance of the fuses and relays ensures the Chrysler New Yorker’s electrical features remain reliable, supporting the vehicle’s luxury and safety functions.

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.
