Video tutorial

Let's see in this video where the fuse boxes are located in the BMW Series 1 E87 version: we find the first one in the glove compartment. We will need to remove the shock absorber of the drawer from the lower support by pressing forward, then release the glove compartment by pressing the two tabs and folding it down.

After replacing the blown fuse, push the glove compartment upwards until it clicks into place. On the back of the fuse box cover, we will find a mirror legend indicating the use of each fuse or relay present in the box. On the positive terminal of the battery, we will find high-voltage maxi fuses.
