If an item of electrical equipment should fail, switch it off and check the fuse.

The fuse box (power distribution box), with spare fuses, relays and plastic tweezers is located in the engine compartment on the left closest to the windscreen.

Take off the fuse box lid and use the plastic tweezers to pull out the fuse for the item of equipment, which is not working. A blown fuse can be identified by the melted strip inside the transparent plastic cover, and must always be renewed.

Never attempt to repair blown fuses.

If a fuse blows repeatedly, have the fault repaired by a BMW service station.
