In the BMW 3 Series, all the fuses are contained within the single fuse box installed in the vehicle: in this car model, the fuse box is located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. To access the fuse box, open the glove compartment and remove the clips that secure it to its housing: this will allow you to remove the glove compartment and access the fuses.

These include those responsible for the operation of the courtesy lights, air conditioning, horn, etc.
