In this article, you will find information about the fuses of the Volkswagen Fox / CrossFox (models 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, and 2008), including diagrams of the fuse boxes, a list of fuses, their designation, and the location of the fuse blocks within the vehicle.
Checking and Replacing Fuses in VW Fox
Caution!
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 personal 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.
Location of Fuse Boxes
Engine Compartment Fuses:
The fuses are located in the engine compartment above the vehicle’s battery. These fuses should only be changed by a Volkswagen Dealer.
Instrument Panel Fuses:
The fuse box is located behind the cover under the steering wheel. Insert a screwdriver into the recess and remove the fuse box cover.
