The windscreen washer fuse on your Volkswagen Polo is located inside the fuse box, which is positioned beneath the steering column. To access it, start by opening the driver's side door.

Then, bend down under the steering column. This will bring you to the blown fuse.

To replace it, simply pull out the old fuse and insert a new fuse with the same amperage. Once you have completed this step, you will have successfully replaced the fuse.
