Localization of the fuse boxes of the Audi A3 version 8V

Model: Audi A3 8V, MK 3 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Fuse box

In this video we see where the fuse box is located in the engine compartment of the Audi A3 8V version: it is located in a rectangular box on the right side (looking at the car from the front), next to the starter battery. However, this car also has another fuse box, located inside the passenger compartment. For left-hand drive vehicles, this is located behind a cover on the left side of the steering column, between the steering wheel and the driver's door. In right-hand drive vehicles, we will find this box inside the glove compartment, behind a cover. In any case, inside this box we will find the fuse for the cigarette lighter (also a power outlet) and it is number F40.
