In this article, you will find information about the fuses of the Subaru Impreza/Impreza WRX (GE, GH, GR, GV; models 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011), 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 Subaru Impreza
The main fuses are designed to melt during an overload to prevent damage to the wiring harness and electrical equipment. Check the main fuses if any electrical component fails to operate (except the starter motor) and other fuses are good. A melted main fuse must be replaced.
Caution!
Never replace a fuse with one having a higher rating or with material other than a fuse because serious damage or a fire could result.
Location of Fuse Boxes
Instrument Panel Fuse Block:
It is located under the instrument panel behind the fuse box cover on the driver’s seat side. To remove the cover, pull it out.
Engine Compartment Fuse Block:
Remove the main fuse box cover.
