Repl ac ing a fu se
A problem in the electrical system may be caused by a
blown fuse.

instrument panel :

panel end face, cover
removed
- Switch off the ignition and the electrical component
affected.
- Carefully pry the face cover off the instrument panel
using the ignition key or a
screwdriver ~ fig. 232.
- Check the fuse listing on the next pages to find out which
fuse belongs to the component which has failed
~ page 327, "Fuse list".
- Remove the blown fuse with the plastic clip provided.
The clip is located on the holder in the fuse box.
- Replace a blown fuse (recognizable by the melted metal
strip inside) with a fuse of the same amperage .
- Firmly snap the cover back onto the instrument panel
face.
The various electrical circuits are protected by fuses. The fuses are
clustered in a centralized unit. The unit is located behind the face
panel at the end of the instrument panel. The crank for operating
the sunroof in case of a power failure is also stored behind the face
panel ~ page 70.
Two spare fuses and a sticker identifying the fuses are located on
the inside of the fuse box cover.
You are well advised to keep a supply of spare fuses in your vehicle.
Fuses with the proper ampere ratings are available at your Audi
d ea le r.
& WARNING
Never replace a fuse with one that has a higher amperage rating.
• A fuse with a too high amperage could damage the electrical
part and cause a fire.
