The BMW X3 produced from 2004 to 2011 has two fuse boxes located inside. Both boxes are easily accessible even for less experienced hands.

The first box is located inside the cabin, specifically behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. After removing the glove compartment, you will need to remove the cover to access the box, which contains fuses that control the cabin electronics.

The second box is located under the hood, specifically next to the battery. Once the hood is open, you will need to remove the cover to access the fuses that control the engine electronics.
