Fuses

Electrical fuses protect different parts of the car's electrical system by cutting the power if the current exceeds the fuses' threshold. You need to replace a blown fuse to restore full functionality to the car's electrical system.
You can find the fuse boxes:
  • on the right-hand side of the engine compartment, if you are standing in front of the car
  • underneath the floor mat under the glove box
  • On the right-hand side of the boot, if you are standing behind the car.

 Important

Fuse replacement

  • If a fuse is incorrectly replaced it can cause severe damage to the electrical system.
  • A replacement fuse must have the correct specifications, such as type and ampere value.
  • A blown fuse may be an indicator of an underlying electrical fault. Volvo recommends an authorised Volvo workshop for all fuse replacements which are not clearly described in the user manual.
