The BMW 3 Series has three fuse boxes: The first is located in the trunk, on the passenger side front wheel well, and contains high amperage fuses; the positions vary depending on the vehicle's construction, either before or after March 2007. A second box is located inside the glove compartment.

To access the box, open the compartment, and to open the compartment, rotate the two latches.

There is also a version before March 2007, one from March 2007 to September 2007, and one from September 2007 onward. In the engine compartment, there is an electronic module called the E-box, located right in front of the front passenger.

Here, you need to distinguish between turbo versions up to March 2007 (and then from 2007 onward) and naturally aspirated versions (with the same division).
