This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
→ Fuses in the vehicle
→ Changing a blown fuse
At the time of print we are unable to provide an up-to-date overview of the locations of the fuses for the electrical consumers. This is because the vehicle is under constant development, because fuses are assigned differently depending on the vehicle equipment level and because several consumers may use a single fuse. You can get more information about the fuse layout from a Volkswagen dealership.
Several electrical consumers could share a single fuse. Conversely, a single consumer could have more than one fuse.
Therefore fuses should only be replaced when the cause of the fault has been rectified. If a new fuse blows shortly after insertion, have the electrical system checked by a qualified workshop as soon as possible.
