Fuses
Never attempt to repair a blown fuse and do
not replace a defective fuse with a substitute of another color or amperage rating;
otherwise, this could lead to a circuit overload, ultimately resulting in a fire
in the vehicle.
Accessing the fuse box:
1. Open the glove compartment.
2. Remove the damper, arrow 1, from the lower holder by applying forward
pressure.
3. Disengage the glove compartment by pressing on both tabs, arrows 2,
and fold it down.
Plastic tweezers are located on the distributor box.
Information on fuse assignment can be found next to the distributor box.
Spare fuses are available from your BMW center.
After replacing a fuse, press the glove compartment upward until it engages and reattach the damper.
