Bmw 3 Series fuse box layout and location

Model: BMW Serie 3 E36 - Years 1990-2001
Part: Fuse box

In this short and simple guide we will see the layout and positioning of the fuse box of the BMW 3 Series, following the instructions below. First we open the engine hood and go to locate the fuse box; it is found at the top right, by removing the plastic cover. At this point we access the external fuse box, where we see the diagram on the cover; in this way it will be possible to identify any faulty fuse (by means of a code and its amperage), in order to remove it and replace it with the new one.

How to Replace the Timing Belt on a Volkswagen Golf

To perform this simple operation, first lift the bonnet. Then, remove the upper engine cover and the plastic side cover that protects the timing belt. To create more space for the job, you can remove components next to the engine, such as the coolant reservoir, the windscreen washer pipe, and the fuel filter. This will allow you to remove the lower engine cover and the right wheel for better access to the area where you will be working. Now, relieve the tension from the tensioner pulley and remove the belt for replacement.
