Volkswagen Golf Plus is a subcompact van created on a common basis with the Volkswagen Golf 5th generation. It was produced in 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009. After that, the car underwent restyling, some call it a generation change, and the updated one was produced in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014. This change also slightly affected the car’s electrical system. In our material you will find a description of the fuse blocks and relays in the Volkswagen Golf Plus with diagrams and photo examples. Let’s highlight the fuse responsible for the cigarette lighter.

Fuse block
The main fuse block is located behind the folding glove box, on the driver’s side.

Above it is the main relay block. In some models it is attached directly to the fuse block. There may be a thermal fuse for the driver’s seat adjustment: 1 – 20A.

There are 2 different versions of the fuse block. They are similar in appearance, but differ in the number of elements – 58 and 60, respectively. The actual numbering will be printed on the block itself.
