Checking and Replacing Fuses

Fuses that have blown will have metal strips that have burned through.

  • Turn off the ignition and the failed electrical equipment;
  • Check the following table to see which fuse belongs to the equipment;
  • Remove the cover;
  • Remove the plastic clip from the fuse panel cover;
  • Remove the blown fuse using the plastic clamp and replace the fuse with an identical new one;
  • Install the cover.

Note

  • If there are multiple fuse values in a cell in the following tables, for example, 5/10/20, it is because of equipment-related differences. Replace the burned fuse with an identical new one;
  • If a new fuse should burn out again shortly after you have installed it, have the electrical system checked by your authorized Audi dealer or qualified repair facility as soon as possible;
  • The following table does not list fuse locations that are not used;
  • Some of the following tables only apply to certain models or options.

Warning!

Do not repair fuses and never replace a blown fuse with one that has a higher amp rating. This can cause damage to the electrical system and fire.
