In this article, you will find information about the fuses of the Volkswagen Amarok (models 2022, 2023, and 2024), including diagrams of the fuse boxes, a list of fuses and relays, their designation, and the location of the fuse blocks within the vehicle.
Checking and Replacing Fuses in VW Amarok
A blown fuse has metal strips that have burned through, which you can see through the transparent housing from above or from the side.
Caution!
- Using unsuitable fuses, repairing fuses, and bridging a power circuit without fuses can causes fires and serious injuries. Never install fuses that have a higher amp rating. Replace fuses only with fuses of same rating and size. Make sure that the color and label are identical to the faulty fuse. Never repair fuses. Never use metal strips, paper clips or similar objects as substitutes for fuses.
- Only replace fuses if the cause for the malfunction has been fixed. If a new fuse blows again after a short time, the electrical system must be checked by suitably qualified professionals.
