Model: BMW X3 MK 1, E83 - Years 2003-2010
Part: Fuse box

In this video, we will look at the location and diagram of the BMW X3 E83: inside the cabin, we find the fuse box behind the glove compartment, and to access it, we need to open the glove compartment, empty it, rotate the two clips located at the top, and lower the panel. In this box, there is the fuse for the cigarette lighter, which is also a power outlet, and it is number F26. Behind fuse box number 1, we find a second box that contains only four high-amperage fuses, numbered from 102 to 107, and a relay panel with ten positions, of which number 5 is kept free by the manufacturer.
