I have a 2004 RWD LT. There is no trailer hitch and I don't plan on ever putting one on. Going through the fuse panel it has all the fuses for 4WD and labelled specific for trailer brakes and turn signals. Is it really necessary to have all these fuses in or are they linked to other electrical systems?

 

Is there an issue with anything?

I dont see why it would be an issue just to leave them in there if there is not a problem.
Just my 2 cents.

 

No electrical issues, I just find it odd to have fuses and relays in for 4wd when it's only rwd. I can understand the trailer brakes and signals being in from the factory if a hitch would be installed but was wondering if pulling the fuses would create problems since car manufacturers like to link totally unrelated systems together electrically.

 

The only way to find out is if you remove fuse by fuse and see if anything happens. I cant say for sure what is connected to what, especially on a second gen.

But that goes back to if there is no issues why not just leave them alone?
