Regarding the fuse boxes of the Audi A3 8L, we find the fuses behind a panel that is in contact with the driver's door frame, inside the dashboard. You can access it by using a small screwdriver to pry open the notch on the panel itself.

The relay box is instead located in the lower part of the dashboard, on the left side of the steering wheel. In the engine compartment, there are also two fuse boxes: one below the air filter box, which we will call "box no. 1", larger in size, and a smaller one (box no. 2) located at the base of the windshield, in front of the driver (for left-hand drive cars).

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
