All about fuses for Volkswagen Golf 2-6: photo and video review

generation was produced with hatchback, station wagon and convertible bodies in 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013. Our material will provide a description of the fuse and relay blocks of the Volkswagen Golf 6 with diagrams and photo examples. We will separately highlight the fuse responsible for the cigarette lighter. And in conclusion, we will offer for download a complete repair and maintenance manual for the Golf 6.

If the model generation is not suitable, then read the description for and accordingly.

Location and layout

Let's look at the diagrams and location of the power supply in Volkswagen Golf cars of the second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth generations. In all cases, the device is located on the driver's side under the instrument panel. The only difference is that in models of the second and third generations the power supply is located on a shelf under the steering wheel. And in models of the fourth, fifth and sixth generations - directly in the dashboard on the side where the driver's door comes into contact with the panel.

Volkswagen Golf 3

The power supply circuit on this vehicle model is similar to the power supply installed in the second version of the car, but there are some differences. Therefore, we will consider the circuits and purpose of power supply elements separately. Location: on the dashboard on the left side, on the shelf under the steering wheel.

Volkswagen Golf 4

Below is a diagram and purpose of power supply devices for the fourth version of PV. The block itself is located on the left side of the dashboard, near the driver's seat. To access it and see it in person, you need to remove the cover using a slotted screwdriver.

Volkswagen Golf 5, 6

For models of the fifth and sixth versions, the power supply circuit will be the same. The location of the power supply is on the left side of the instrument panel, in the area where the driver's door comes into contact with the dashboard. Below is a diagram and description of all components.

Actions in emergency situations Volkswagen Golf 7. Volkswagen Golf 7 fuses

Due to the constant improvement of the design of the car and its individual systems, as well as the fact that the installation of many fuses, including in the joint power circuits of several different consumers, can depend in a complex way on the presence or absence of certain additional equipment, it is necessary to comprehensively indicate All installation locations and ratings of individual fuses are not possible at the time of publication of this manual. The location of the fuses can be obtained from a Volkswagen workshop. One fuse can protect the circuits of several electrical consumers. And, vice versa: one consumer may have several fuses. Replace fuses only after eliminating the cause of their blown. If the new fuse quickly blows again, have the relevant electrical equipment checked by a workshop.

WARNING The vehicle's electrical system uses high voltage, which can cause electric shocks, severe burns and death! — Do not touch the ignition system wires under any circumstances. — Avoid short circuits in electrical equipment. Using improper fuses, repaired blown fuses, or shorting electrical circuits without fuses can cause fire and serious injury. — Never install fuses with a higher current rating than required. Replace blown fuses only with fuses of the same rating (color and markings must be identical) and size. — Do not use repaired fuses (so-called bugs)!

— It is prohibited to replace fuses with pieces of wire, paper clips and other improvised means!

Note To avoid damage to the vehicle's electrical equipment, before replacing the fuse, turn off the ignition, lights and all electrical consumers and remove the key from the ignition switch. — Using high amperage fuses may cause damage elsewhere in the electrical circuit.

— Protect exposed fuse boxes from dirt and moisture. Dirt and moisture in the fuse box can cause damage to electrical equipment.

Fuses in the vehicle Replace blown fuses only with fuses of the same rating (color and markings must be identical) and size. — Standard blade fuses (ATO®). — Small flat fuses (MINI®). — JCASE® fuses.

Removal and replacement

The replacement process is identical for all versions of the FV. To replace, you will need a screwdriver or wrenches, depending on whether the power supply is attached to the body with bolts or self-tapping screws. Decide which tool you need, and you can start removing.

1. Using a screwdriver, disconnect the dashboard trim behind which the power supply is installed in your car.
2. Unscrew the screws securing the power supply to the car body.
3. Pull out the device: it will hang on the wires.
4. Take the new power supply unit and, one by one, disconnecting it from the old device, insert all the necessary wires into the connectors of the new power supply unit.
5. Install the new power supply in place by tightening the fastening screws and closing the instrument panel trim.

Block location

The 4th generation Volkwagen Golf has two PCB modules:

1. Engine block - located on the battery cover under the hood. To access the fuses, you need to release the two side latches and lift the cover.
2. Cabin module - located on the driver's side on the side of the dashboard. To access the unit, you must open the door and remove the cover.

The fuse description is printed on the cover of the passenger compartment module and replacement pliers are attached.

In addition to the two main blocks, several power fuses are located in separate places:

• fuse for turns and emergency lights - built into the hazard warning light button;
• The fuse for the air supply motor to the manifold is on the engine panel.

Additional fusible elements

In some versions of Volkswagen Golf 3rd generation vehicles, additional fuses may be used. The following additional elements are used in the interior fuse and relay module:

• rated 30A - power supply to the ABS system relay;
• rated 30A - power supply to the relay of the hydroelectric unit of the ABS system;
• rated 10A - air conditioning compressor for cars without climate control;
• rated 30A - interior ventilation motor with the ClimaTronic system;
• with a nominal value of 5A - controller of the ClimaTronic system;
• rated 5A - +12A power supply to the on-board network of a towed trailer.

For a diesel internal combustion engine, an additional PP for the engine warm-up system is used, with a rated current of 60 A. It is located separately, on the engine panel under the hood.

Scheme

To carry out repairs effectively, it is extremely important to know the location and rating of all fuses. You can get this information from the block cover or from the diagrams presented below.

There are a total of 2 fuse installation locations in the car.

Highly loaded elements for protecting the circuits responsible for powering the electrics of the power plant and its auxiliary systems are mounted in the engine compartment.

The interior module is less loaded. This part presents fusible links of internal equipment, control parts of power units and lighting fixtures.
