Volkswagen Tiguan - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Tiguan MK 1, 5N - Years 2007-2016
Part: Fuse box
Operation: Where is the fuse for the cigarette lighter socket of the VW Tiguan located?

When the cigarette lighter socket of the Volkswagen Tiguan stops working, it means that we need to replace the corresponding fuse. To replace the fuse, we need to open the fuse box located inside the cabin, specifically behind the driver's side glove compartment. Once the compartment is removed, we open the box and remove the 20 Amp fuse number 31. After inserting the new fuse, we test the operation of the cigarette lighter socket. If the socket continues to work, we can check the status of the internal cables by removing the socket from the bottom of the dashboard.
