This video shows where the fuses are located in the Volkswagen Passat, which should be checked if one or more devices show signs of malfunction. As shown, the first main fuse box is located in the engine bay, protected by a black cover next to the battery.

The second and final box is located inside the cabin, specifically behind the left side of the dashboard, which can be removed using a flathead screwdriver. If a fuse is blown, ensure you always replace it with a spare of the same amperage.

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
