The fuse box of the Volkswagen Tiguan is located in the engine compartment on the right side (near the battery). Remove the cover by simply prying it up from the bottom.

You will find the fuses, and if the bridge inside is broken, the fuse needs to be replaced; otherwise, if the bridge is intact, the fuse does not need to be replaced. The other fuse box is located inside the cabin on the left side of the steering wheel.

There is a small cover at the bottom that needs to be gently pulled off from the bottom, and once removed, you will find the fuse box. If the fuse inside has a broken bridge, it needs to be replaced; otherwise, if the bridge is intact, the fuse does not need to be replaced.
