How to replace the fuses located in the dedicated box of a Volkswagen Polo? Open the cover and check for any anomalies indicated on the instrument panel. Use a plastic lever to remove the trim next to the dashboard (left side of the steering wheel), then, use needle-nose pliers to pull out the damaged fuses.

Once this is done, replace the fuses in the appropriate housing in the compartment. Finally, close the fuse inspection box with the cover.

Test the correct functioning of the vehicle by turning on the instrument panel with the appropriate key.
