The fuse boxes of the BMW 3 Series are responsible for containing the fuses that regulate the operation of the devices installed on the vehicle: in this type of car, a single box for containing the fuses can be found. This will be located inside the dashboard, immediately behind the glove compartment: the latter must be opened and removed from its seat by unscrewing the screws that hold it in place.

Once removed, the box containing the fuses can be identified: this box contains the fuses that regulate the operation of the low beam headlights, the cigarette lighter, the airbags, etc.
