In this article, you will find information about the fuses of the Volkswagen Phaeton (models 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006), 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 Phaeton
Caution!
- A fuse with too high amperage could damage the electrical part and cause a fire. Do not use a fuse with a higher amperage than the fuse being replaced.
- To avoid damaging the electrical system, turn off all lights and accessories and remove the ignition key before replacing a fuse.
