Hello everyone.

Yesterday I became the proud owner of a Polo MKVI Twist TDi.

Now, I was the owner of a Lupo...

I haven't got the manuals to my car because it didn't come with them..

I know that one fuse box is underneath the dash by the steering wheel coloumn... But that fuse box only has about 6 fuses in it.


But... is that the only one? Where are all the other fuses?
I'm looking for the cigarette lighter fuse because it appears to have blown and I need to use it for my iPod Adapter.

Any help appreciated.

If you open your drivers door and look at the side of your dash board you will notice the side panel of the dash is removable. Take that off and the fuses sit just behind that panel you've just removed

You mean in there?

I can only see around 6 fuses in there.

Those are all the relays in that picture.

Hmm.. so those big pieces are relays..

Ok, got that... Now I see 3 small fuses next to these relays...

But, where are the rest that control everything else?

Anyone mind taking a picture of their car for me?

Its located as Sidaba says.

Basically, the cover sits flat with the drivers door when closed - put it this way, you cannot access it or see where it is unless the door is open.

Both ends of the dashboard have plastic covers that have a 'flathead' screwdriver sized groove. Just prise this out from here and remove this cover - the fuses are in there.
