The fuse related to the operation of the fuel pump on a Volkswagen Jetta model IV is located inside the box located in the front hood. The fuse in question is called S 163 50 amp. To replace the fuse, we need to open the box by releasing the cover and remove the fuse using a needle-nose pliers.

Insert the new fuse maintaining the same amperage to avoid short circuit to the fuel pump or the control unit. After replacing the fuse, close the hood and start the vehicle to test the operation of the pump.
