Which 2012 Fiesta do you have?

Some fuses differ between versions of the 2012 Ford Fiesta. Choose yours to see the right fuse numbers.

Not sure which Fiesta you have?
  • Ford UK lists the 2012 Fiesta under more than one model name: Fiesta (2008) and Fiesta (2012). Their fuse layouts differ.
  • Ford UK’s Owner Manuals page can find your car’s handbook from its VIN. The page it opens is titled with Ford’s model name, for example “Fiesta (2008)”.
  • Your printed owner’s handbook, or a franchised dealer with your VIN, can also confirm it.
  • Ford’s handbook shows 2 passenger fuse box layouts (Type 1 and Type 2) but doesn’t say which cars have which.
  • Type 1: Ford’s chart lists fuses 1–27 and 1 relay.
  • Type 2: Ford’s chart lists fuses 1–49 and 12 relays.
  • Open the passenger fuse box (behind the glove box) and compare it with each chart before removing anything.
  • Many cars carry a manufacturer’s label (often called the VIN plate) that can show the build or production date. It is commonly on a door pillar, under the bonnet or at the base of the windscreen, but the exact place varies.
  • Your owner’s handbook, service record or original sales paperwork may show the build date or specification.
  • The first registration date on your V5C logbook is not the build date. Cars are often built weeks or months before they are registered, so it is only a rough guide near a changeover.
  • A franchised dealer can usually confirm the build date and specification from your VIN.
  • Still unsure? Compare the legend on your fuse box cover with each option.

If you can’t confirm it, keep both results in mind and check the fuse box legend before removing anything.
