In this guide we will see the instructions that will allow us to access the internal fuse box of the Volkswagen Passat. First, we get on board the vehicle and start removing the plastic cover that we find at the bottom right, on the driver's side (under the steering wheel); inside we will find the fuse box, as shown in the video.

At this point, we use the diagram reported in the vehicle's user manual to find the fuse diagram, which associates each individual fuse with a code and the corresponding amperage (useful for any replacements).

The procedure involves turning on the instrument cluster, pressing the accelerator three times, and then turning off the ignition. After this, keep the brake pressed, turn the ignition back on, and then turn it off again. Upon the next ignition, you will notice that the light has been reset.
