Where to Find the Front Headlight Fuses on the Volkswagen Passat

Model: Volkswagen Passat B3, B4 - Years 1988-1996
Part: Headlight

If the front headlights of your Volkswagen Passat suddenly stop working and the bulbs are intact, it is very likely that one of the related fuses has blown, the location of which is indicated in this video. As we can see, they are labelled F1, F2, F11, and F12, and are located in the box under the dashboard on the driver's side. The first two refer to the dipped beams, while the others refer to the main beams. In case of a blown fuse, ensure you use a replacement with the same specifications to avoid causing any damage.
