Replacing Fuses on Smart Fortwo First Series

Model: Smart Smart 450 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Fuse box

Let's look at replacing the fuses on the Smart Fortwo first series. Open the driver's side door, and use a plastic lever to remove the cover under the dashboard (below the steering wheel), then use pliers to pull out the damaged fuses from the compartment. Once this is done, insert the new fuses into the appropriate slots in the compartment. Finally, close the fuse inspection box with the cover (if present). Test the correct operation of the vehicle by turning on the instrument cluster with the ignition key.

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
