Locating Fuse Boxes on Mercedes GL X164

Model: Mercedes Gl MK 1, X164 - Years 2006-2012
Part: Fuse box

In this video, we see where the fuse boxes are located on the Mercedes GL X164: the box inside the cabin is positioned under the left rear passenger seat. You will need to flip the seat, as shown in the video, to access a plastic cover which, when lifted, reveals the fuses and relays related to the vehicle's interior conveniences. Opening the bonnet, you will find the second box located on the left side of the engine bay (when looking at the vehicle from the front), which opens with two clips. The YouTuber shows a diagram indicating that there are two more boxes accessible from the dashboard thickness (the part in contact with the doors) on both the driver and passenger sides. The map also specifies all the fuses and relays contained in the various boxes on the back. It is usually kept in the box under the left rear passenger seat.
