Volkswagen Golf vehicles have two fuse boxes, even in models produced from 1997 to 2003. The fuse boxes are located inside the cabin and under the front bonnet. Specifically, we will discuss the fuse related to the operation of the fuel reserve tank.

This fuse is number 38, rated at 15 Amperes, and is located in the fuse box behind the left side dashboard. It is important to replace the fuse with one of the same amperage to avoid damage to the sensor and the control unit.
