There's something similar to that on here already - I found it by searching.

This is really helpful though, so thanks a lot for posting. I'm sure a lot of people will find this very useful :thumbup:

 

Right-clicked...and saved as...

Thanks!!

thanks liked this made copy for glove box

 

Very useful, thank you!
Now, all i need is a Relay layout for my 2004 Passat 1.8t

 

Look here: http://www.passatworld.com/forums/42-volkswagen-passat-b5-discussion/135583-fyi-passat-fuse-relay-panel-diagrams.html

 

I have something real funny happening on my 2001 passat wagon. When I pull fuse #10, my horn and cruise control stop working. I also have a random parasitic battery drain. The drain seemingly goes away when I pull fuse #10. Could these two things be related?

 

#10 fuse powers more than what that list says up top:

 

Ah, that makes sense then. I think I've found the root of my issue.

 

I know this is a really dumb question, but here it goes...

Where is the main fuse panel shown in the top of this thread? I cannot find it for the life of me. I have a 2003 Passat Wagon. I've looked all over the inside of the car and can't find it.

 

Found it!!! Man I feel dumb. Right in front of me the whole time.

 

first of all, thanks! been searching for this for quite some time now...

second, a little help about this issue please.

for some reason, i cant adjust the height of headlights. i know it has a name in english, i just dont know how to translate it.
i turn the dial up and down from 0 to 3 and from 3 to 0 and the light doesnt move. it wouldnt be a problem if it was stuck on the highest option, but instead its stuck on the lowest option so basically my lights barely help me drive...
im talking about the dial that is located right above where i turn on my headlights. right next to the dial that dimms my dashboard.

hope i explained myself correctly.

question is, which one of the fuses is responsible for this thing? could it be that it got burned and thats why it doesnt work?

thanks in advance.

 

The fuse for headlight leveling is #8.
It may be the dial in the dash that needs replacing part # 3B0941333C01C

Absolutely great! But what are the 30A and 10A fuses for (right by the slant)? Are they spares?

John

 

Yes, they are spares. (There are no contacts in that area)

 

If that's the case, I'll fill the area with fuses of other values. Will be handy.

dragging back up an old thread.

2003 Passat 1.8T, Wagon GL

front cig lighter is working, back seat (console, just above ashtray) is not. are they controlled by different fuses? Ive tested voltage at the lighter thats not working and its dead, but i cant find a fuse dedicated to the individual cig lighters (at least nothing on the fuse legend that says so). SURELY they arent both controld by the same fuse???

Edit, i just pulled every fuse and all are good. Is there another fuse panel besides the one just left of the steering wheel?

 

Check the fuses on the bottom of the 13 position relay panel.

Where exactly is that?

 

Ha! I knew that would be next. The relay panels are located behind the headlight switch. You can see them by looking behind the the fuse panel. The lower dash panel needs to be removed to access them. I think there is a diy on this somewhere.

Here the first few steps in this diy will get you to the relays.

LoL!! Thanks! I'll have to give that a shot when the kid gets home with the car. (this damn car is turning into a pain in the ass!)

 

what ASSININE engineering on VW's part. I thought the germans were smart. I can see putting big relays back there behind that panel, but 3 more 20 amp fuses??????? Why the HELL not put them out there with the rest of the fuses!??!! I mean FFS, its not like there arent plenty of spare spots to put them! Especially for something as simple as a lighter.

Ok, rant over (for now). Thanks for the info, that was it, the fuse was blown, and i def. appreciate the tips.

 

Tks for the pics...I had found similiar pics from the internet.

 

Thanks for asking the question T_Clark. This has been bugging me for over a year now!

 

What type are these fuses? ATM, ATO, ATC.....etc.? I'd like to get a bag-o-fuses to put in the car. Thanks.

 

The ones most recently spoken of in this topic were just regular fuses, believe the lighter fuse was a 20A(?). There are three of them back their with the relays

 

There is no such thing as a "regular fuse", there are a lot of different types of fuses.

 

Hi do you happen to know the rest of this list after 32 to 44? Thanks

Great! Thanks, I hope that's for the W8 too.

 

Thank you so much, I bought my car used think it came from an auction and have no owners manual and have needed this info for about 5 years. I love my car 2001 Passat but it has had electrical issues since I bought it and have a kill switch on my battery to save the battery from dying every time it is left sitting.
