In this chapter you will find information on the following subjects:
⇒Fuses in the instrument panel
⇒Fuses in the engine compartment
⇒Replacing blown fuses
Due to ongoing development of the vehicle, configuration-dependent allocation of fuses and the com‐
bined fuse protection of multiple loads with one fuse, an up-to-date overview of the fuse location per
load is not possible at the time of printing. Detailed information regarding fuse box layout is available
from authorized Volkswagen dealers and authorized Volkswagen Service Facilities.
In general, one fuse can protect several loads. One load can also be protected by several fuses.
Find out why the fuse blew and correct the problem before replacing a blown fuse. If a newly replaced
fuse blows again after a short time, the electrical system should be checked by an authorized
Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
WARNING
High voltage systems in the engine compartment can cause electrical shocks, severe burns, and
even death!
Never touch ignition cables. Never touch other components of the high voltage electronic igni‐
tion system.
Avoid short circuits in the electrical system.
WARNING
Using the wrong fuse, using a blown fuse that has been repaired, and using metal objects in
place of fuses to complete the electrical connection in the circuit can cause fires and serious per‐
sonal injury.
Never replace a fuse with one that has a higher amp rating. Replace a blown fuse only with a
fuse of the same amperage (same color and same imprint) and same overall size.
Never repair fuses.
Never replace fuses with a metal strip, a paper clip, or a similar object.
