Where is the fuse box?

Under hood fuse box

Under the bonnet (engine compartment)

  1. Pull the latch toward you and remove the top cover.
  2. Pull the connector lever upward.
  3. Pull the connector upward to remove it.
  4. Pull both latches toward you and remove the fuse box.
  5. Turn the fuse box over and open the lid.

We haven’t drawn a schematic of the under hood fuse box for this version yet. Use the fuse and relay numbers on this page and the legend on the fuse box to find the right position.

Where to look

  • 4A

    Under the bonnet (engine compartment)

    Fuse ·20A · Fuel pump - diesel.

    Position not shown on the schematic. Find fuse 4A on the fuse box legend.

  • 4B

    Under the bonnet (engine compartment)

    Fuse ·20A · Fuel pump - gasoline.

    Position not shown on the schematic. Find fuse 4B on the fuse box legend.

Always confirm the number against the legend on the fuse box cover before pulling anything.

How to replace the fuse safely

  1. Switch off the ignition and all electrical equipment. Take the key out, or move a keyless fob away from the car.
  2. Open the fuse box and find the fuse using the number on the cover legend or the chart on this page.
  3. Pull the fuse straight out with the plastic fuse puller (usually clipped inside the fuse box) or fine-nose pliers.
  4. Look at the metal strip inside the fuse. A broken or burnt strip means it has blown.
  5. Fit a new fuse with exactly the same amperage rating. The number on top and the colour should match.
  6. Refit the cover, switch on and test the component.
  • Never fit a fuse with a higher amperage rating than specified. It can let wiring overheat.
  • Never bridge a fuse with wire, foil or anything else.

Fuse keeps blowing?

A fuse that blows again straight away is doing its job. Something on that circuit is drawing too much current. Common causes are damaged wiring shorting to the bodywork, a failing motor or socket, water getting in, or a faulty accessory. Fitting fuse after fuse, or a bigger fuse, won’t fix the fault and can overheat the wiring. Have the circuit tested by an auto electrician.

Not the fuse? Check these next.

  • Fuel cut-off switch

    Many cars cut the fuel pump after a jolt or impact. Your handbook will show if there is a reset switch.

  • Listen for the pump

    Turn the ignition on and listen for a short hum from under the rear seat. Silence suggests a power or pump fault.

  • Fuel level

    A faulty fuel gauge can hide an empty tank. Add a few litres before going further.

  • Fault codes

    An OBD scanner can show stored codes for fuel pressure or pump circuit faults.

Fuse layouts can differ between trim levels and optional equipment. Always confirm against the legend on your fuse box.
