Replacing the Cigarette Lighter Fuse on an Opel Astra and Fuse Box Locations

Model: Vauxhall Astra Astra K - Years 2015-2022
Part: Fuse box

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.
