Location and diagram of the fuse boxes of the BMW Series 5 E39 version

Model: BMW Serie 5 E39 - Years 1995-2003
Part: Fuse box

Let's see the layout and diagram of the fuse boxes of the BMW Series 5 E39 version; we find the box inside the engine compartment located in front of the passenger (left-hand drive) under the grille at the end of the windshield. Inside, the configuration of the fuses can be of two types, depending on the equipment. A second box is located inside the cabin, at the top of the glove compartment (we will need to turn two butterfly screws to access it) and on the right side are some relays. Another container is located on the floor, under the passenger mat (still considering a left-hand drive). Also in the trunk, above the right wheel arch, we find a fuse box, accessible by removing the carpet panel covering it.

Replacing the Battery in a Mercedes A-Class

Is the battery in your Mercedes A-Class dead? Can't start the car? Replace the battery. Open the car door and slide the passenger seat back; the battery is under the front mat (in other cars, it is usually located in the engine compartment). Remove the mat and the plastic cover from the battery. Start loosening the battery terminal bolts with a socket wrench. Remove the old battery using the plastic handle and install a new one, tightening the power terminals. Close the battery compartment and cover it with the mat.
