The fuse box for the cabin of the Opel Astra K version is located behind the cover of the centre console. To remove it, pull it towards you firmly (but also with some care) to expose the cabin fuse box, where the fuses protecting the cigarette lighter are stored.

The relevant fuses are no. #4 (if your vehicle is from 2016/2018) or no. #29 (if newer). There is another fuse that protects the power socket in the load area.

This is located in the box in the engine compartment, which is at the front left of the engine bay, directly in front of the driver. In this case, the fuse is #35. An additional fuse box is also located in the load area, still on the left side of the vehicle (behind the driver) in a compartment in the upholstery above the wheel arch.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
