Learn about Dodge Avenger 2008-2014 fuse box and relay’s locations, functions, and maintenance tips for optimal vehicle electrical system.
The Dodge Avenger (2008-2014) is a midsize sedan known for its bold styling and aggressive stance. It offers a single body style—a four-door sedan—designed to provide both comfort and practicality. The Avenger features distinctive front-end styling, with a signature crosshair grille and muscular lines that give it a sporty appearance. Inside, the car offers ample space for passengers and includes various technology features such as available touchscreen infotainment and climate control options.
In terms of the electrical system, the Avenger relies heavily on its fuse box and relays, which control essential functions like the power windows, air conditioning, and lighting. The main fuse box is located under the hood, while a secondary fuse box is positioned inside the cabin. Relays, which manage larger electrical components like the fuel pump and starter motor, are housed near these fuse boxes and are vital for the smooth operation of these critical systems. Regular checks on fuses and relays can help prevent electrical issues and ensure consistent vehicle performance.

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.
