[@SeanKayGee]

My high beams are not working and I have no idea which fuse to check. But this gave me the epiphany... check them all! Thanks!

SKG1985 Great stuff, glad to have helped. Please subscribe if you can, would really appreciate it. Have a great week and thanks for visiting my channel. Good luck.

[@augustosantiago6769]

Thank you for the video. OMG, you try your car very gently, and with love. Please, let me know when you plan to sell it, I will be interested to buy it 🙂

[@harrisjnr6553]

Simple and informative.. Goodstuff

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Thank you. Glad to help. 😎

[@ecceben]

thanks for the video. i had no clue there was a box in the engine compartment. the display screen on my nav unit suddenly went very, very dim yesterday, but the radio still works. i'm hoping a fuse swap is going to fix the problem

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

ecceben If it was a fuse then I think the sat nav display would just go off. It could be a display setting in the options. Good luck. Let me know what you find out.

[@stuffoflardohfortheloveof]

Fan-bloody-dabby-dozy! 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Thanks 😎. Was such a shock when I found out The Krankies kid was his wife!

[@beno6277]

Hi which one is the cigarette ligter please. I thought i found it as the fuse was blown. I changed it. Then the car wouldn't start. I changed the good fuse around and it started. But cigarette lighter still not working 😢

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

How odd, a fuse like you are talking about would not prevent the car from starting. Not sure where it is. If you’ve checked all fuses there may be one under the seat possibly

[@angibson100]

That's all very well! We now know, if we didn't before, where the fuse panels are located and how to open them. But how do you find which fuse protects which accessory, for example the screen washers? Nothing in Owners Manual and nothing on inside of fuse panel cover.

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

I'm afraid you will have to test them individually. It is most likely to be a 7.5amp or a 10amp so go for those ones first.

[@MrBluedanube]

My light indicator wont turn off even though none of the lights are out. I wonder if it's a fuse thing. How do I know which the light fuse is?

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Doubt it's a fuse as then it would not work at all. Could be a faulty stalk or a Relay switch.

[@MrSephy37]

My power passenger seat stopped working, would you know if it's powered by a fuse or a thermal fuse or? Thank you, appreciate it

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

It could be a fuse yes or maybe a frayed wire somewhere underneath the seat. Check fuses first.

[@eddiemcvey]

hi, which fuse is for radio/back up camera/ navigation. No power. Thank you!

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

No idea I’m afraid. Fuse diagrams are so rare. Hope you get it sorted

[@garybarker1602]

Hi any idea where the fuse for front right dipped beam is located? Thanks.

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Not sure, I expect there is just one fuse for all headlamp bulbs. If it's just that bulb that's failed it could be a blown bulb or it's not seated correctly.

[@gang-gang8325]

Which fuse do I need to change if my power ports are not working cigarette light one and rear one

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Not sure I’m afraid.

[@jonjon9237]

Questio. Do you think is difficult to change the interior fuse box ?

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

That’s a fairly big job changing the entire fusebox

[@keepingupwithmarsha5155]

I replaced the fuse for the cigarette lighter and it’s still not working. Do I need to check engine fuse for this to

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

The 12v cigarette lighter will be one fuse, the fuse you replaced just have another look to make sure it hasn't blown straight away, if it has there is probably a short somewhere, make sure nothing is trapped in the socket like a small coin or something.

[@dainorele15]

Stupid question but I hope someone can help. I found that my old Passat b5.5 2001 1.9tdi 96kw was 4 engine control fuses. Only one is on. What about other three? I'm confused. Should those three be off and one on or not. If one should be on then why are there three more?

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

All models will vary depending on the level of electronics on the car. There will be some empty spaces in the larger fuse blocks, hope that answers your query.

[@kumbackquatsta]

b7 passat 2.5, which fuses causes the clock/trip meter to reset? remote door unlock?

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Not sure I’m afraid.

[@macaulleyskitchen8836]

Thanks, very helpful.

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Glad it was helpful. 😎

[@munickhan8365]

Hi I have a question , I have vw passat dsg 2016 automatic and I wanna connect my led lights with the engine fuse box , can you suggest me wich fuse can I use please , or I can't connect with the engine fuse box my LED light ?

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

No idea, you'd either need a spare live empty one to use with a new fuse or link up to one that's on permanently. Good luck.

[@_eric21]

by any chance you know where the interior fuse is located? switched them to led and stopped working. i have a Passat CC 2012

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Interior fuse for what? Unfortunately if you switch to LED bulbs it can confuse the computer as they have low resistance. You need to swap back to normal bulbs or buy LED bulbs with Canbus technology.

[@_eric21]

🙌🏽

[@_eric21]

what if I switch back to normal bulbs and interior lights still don’t work? what’s next

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

@@_eric21 not sure it may have blown a fuse or a computer board. Try all the fuses first

[@paulcampbell6597]

hi do you know which fuse is for the alarm

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Not sure I'm afraid.

[@andrewjohnson1555]

Hi please help me out your fuse box is the only one close to ours could you tell me the one for cig lighter.

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Not sure I’m afraid as haven’t got the Passat at the moment. You can test them without removing them all (link in pinned comments). Hope you find it.

[@andrewjohnson1555]

Thank ill track it down old school way . Thanks for swift reply .

[@marwanadam6060]

I have Passat cc and the lights are not blinking when I lock the doors with the remote key, they do blink when I unlock the doors. It’s driving me nuts. Any advice how to fix this?

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Is that even an issue? If it locks and unlocks ok there’s probably no issue. I’ve never even looked at those small LEDs

[@MadMax-wo4hq]

Can anyone tell me where the cigarette lighter fuses please

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Afraid I don’t know but on my VW T5 it’s under the passenger seat! Worth a look just in case

[@davidbarthel9976]

Why aren't the fuses labeled. It's not a problem finding them.

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Exactly! Be so simple to have a diagram on the back of the covers, some vehicles have this.

[@derekwaters71]

I have a VW Passat 2013, drivers side door has a button for the boot release (not working) where would the fuse be located? As I have trouble shoot everything else 😉

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Derek Waters Not sure I'm afraid. I doubt if something that small has its own fuse. Could be a faulty switch

[@stu27777]

You forgot the fuse box in the same place on the passengers side, it contains the 15 amp fuses for the trailer plug.

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Sure I checked on this one. Thanks for the info. I'll add it to the description

[@jirkaszabo]

I have a 2006 Passat C3,engine light came on,also picture of tvisted wires, looks like a fuse, not sure where to look

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Twisted wires could be a faulty glow plug if it's a Diesel engine.

[@alpercanpolat7907]

Merhaba Passat b7 de tavan iç aydınlatma lambası sigortası hangisi acaba

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Korktuğumdan emin değilim. Muhtemelen tüm iç ampuller için bir sigorta vardır, bu yüzden sadece ampul olabilir.

[@Kristosdee]

Very useful channel amigo! I bought a 59 plate Passat the week before lockdown and I've not been able to use it much so I keep finding extra things on it to fiddle with. Already wondering how to alter the times on the clock (I see the link to your vid), I sussed the tyre pressure, but not sussed the bluetooth connection for my phone yet. Maybe you've got a vid for that too :-)

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Unfortunately I haven’t got a Bluetooth video for this one, good idea though. Thanks for visiting and enjoy your Passat. I’ve got a playlist of VW Passat videos so might be some useful stuff there for you. Have a fab weekend. 😎

[@Kristosdee]

@@LurgsHowToGuides thanks man! The videos are definitely very handy! Have a great weekend too and if you get time to do that bluetooth video then that would be much appreciated! Enjoy your brew 😁 🍵 ☕

[@tonytoni1146]

Could someone tell me please why I shift my stick in my 2006 volkswagen passat the light don't show what shift I am in could it be my fuse for my transmission. From Tony

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Doubt if that's a fuse, might be a switch on the gearbox that is faulty. Really not sure. Try some VW Forums. Let me know if you fix it.

[@RomeoATB]

Can you help me please my Passat 2014 radio is stuck on the fender premium audio screen and idk how to fix that

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Don't know I'm afraid. You may have to disconnect the power to reset it but make sure you have any security codes if the Radio has one.

[@RomeoATB]

Lurgs yes i don’t think it has any codes and i tried resetting from watching all kinds of videos but i just miss the radio everything that it provides

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

@@RomeoATB You should be able to find out what Fuse is for the Radio and pull that out to reset the power on it. Last resort is to disconnect the battery but you may lose other settings on your Car so not ideal. How to Disconnect a Car Battery Safely kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJ_ZamqIqZlresk

[@RomeoATB]

Lurgs thank you so much I’ll try to find it

[@emajster]

One more fuse - legendary S51

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Never found that one, why would they have a fuse on its own, odd.

[@uni1399andlasharkgod]

Where is the fuse for the front wind shield wipers???

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

Devon Price afraid I don't know that.

[@kenfitzsimons1989]

Very helpful thank you

[@LurgsHowToGuides]

No problem. Glad to help.😎
