In the Mercedes A-Class, the fuse box is unique and located inside the cabin: to find the fuse box, go to the right side inside the vehicle (left-hand drive and right-hand drive). Remove the floor mats, locate a cover, and remove it as well.

Take off the rubber cover, and once the rubber protection is removed, you will find both the fuses and the battery. To replace a fuse, use small pliers to identify the fuse to be changed, grasp it, and pull it out. If the bridge inside the fuse is broken, the fuse needs to be replaced; otherwise, the fuse is functional.

Replace a fuse with one of the same amperage.
