Fuse Box Location on Volkswagen Passat

Model: Volkswagen Passat 3BG, B5 - Years 1996-2005
Part: Fuse box

In this model of Volkswagen Passat, there is only one fuse box, located inside the vehicle, unlike many other models which have two or three. The fuse box inside the cabin is found on the driver's side, on the side wall of the dashboard, accessible only by opening the door. Here you will find, for example, the fuse related to the ABS (number 7) or the one for the number plate light (number 4). The table shows all of them; otherwise, check the back of the fuse box cover or your user and maintenance manual.
