Location of Fuse Boxes and EOBD Socket on a Seat Altea

Model: Seat Altea MK 1 - Years 2004-2015
Part: Fuse box

In the Seat Altea, as in most vehicles, there are two fuse boxes. The first is located in the cabin, on the left side of the dashboard, under the steering wheel. Here there is a compartment with a plastic cover that snaps off, and - as seen in the video - underneath you will find not only the fuse box but also the purple EOBD socket. In this box, you will also find the fuses for the cigarette lighter and the rear power socket (2005/2006 versions) respectively #42 and #47; in the 2007 and later versions, the only fuse for the cigarette lighter is #30. The other fuse box is located in the engine compartment, on the upper right side above the battery (when looking at the vehicle from the front).
