Briefly, we will look at the indications regarding the layout and positioning of the fuse boxes on the Volkswagen Golf. First, open the front door of the vehicle and start removing the plastic cover located on the side of the dashboard by prying at the edges; this will give you access to the internal fuses.

The external fuse box is found in the engine compartment by removing the cover next to the battery; usually, the fuse diagram is found inside the covers, which can also be found in the vehicle's manual (where you will find the codes and amp ratings).
