The fuse box of the Mercedes-Benz ML is located in the engine compartment, on the right side. To access it, first ensure the engine is off and the keys are removed from the ignition.

Open the bonnet by pulling the release lever inside the cabin, usually located near the brake pedal or under the dashboard. Once the bonnet is open, locate the fuse box on the right side of the engine compartment.

It will be covered by a plastic cover, which can be removed by pressing the retaining clips or unscrewing the screws, depending on the specific model. After removing the cover, you will have access to the fuses.

Be sure to check the owner's manual to identify the correct fuse to replace, as each fuse is responsible for different electrical components of the vehicle. After replacing the fuse, refit the cover ensuring it is securely fastened.

Close the bonnet securely before starting the vehicle again.
