Technical Fuse box

[Michael55023]

I was trying to replace the fuse for the 12v cigarette lighter but when comparing the fuses to the owners manual diagrams nothing matches up, also all diagrams online are also different, has anyone had this problem or found a diagram that does match?

Hi

Sorry, 2018 1.2 pop

Ive got a 2018.. but my handbook is 2 hours away

The 1.2 pop is probably as 'standard' as it gets..
But the 2018 facelift added kit never seen before.. so fusebox changes are likely

In the meantime..
What rating of Fuse are they listing 10,15,20A

There wont be too many of the correct rating to check on yours

I have found and replaced the cigarette lighter fuse as that was marked correctly but f30 marked as fog lights is in a different position to the diagram

Only 2 x 15A listed there..

I will compare my book later

This has been a problem for every vehicle manufacturer, ever since the first handbook was printed. Vehicles are changed, for good reasons, but printing a manual has a longer lead time than the change to the vehicle. Vehicles soon after the change will almost always carry an older manual.

The fusebox lid, if there is one, should reflect the layout under it, but the internal fusebox will often have no lid. Process should be to check the lidded boxes first, then resort to checking each fuse of the correct rating, until the dead one is found. Whilst fuses locations are changed, their rating rarely does.

The cover for the fuse box is labeled the same as the manual and the labels on each slot are also the same, weird that the fuses would be labeled all the same but in different locations from what it says in the manual
