Audi S4 Quattro 2005 - FUSES - CIRCUIT PROTECTION
WARNING: Never replace a fuse with one that has a higher amperage rating. A fuse with a too high amperage could damage the electrical part and cause a fire.
For access to fuse box, refer to Fig. 19.
Fig. 19: Audi S4 Quattro 2005 - Component Locations - Identifying Fuses Box Panel Cover
Audi S4 Quattro 2005 - REPLACING A FUSE
A problem in the electrical system may be caused by a blown fuse.
- Switch off the ignition and the electrical component affected.
- Carefully pry the face cover off the instrument panel using the ignition key or a screwdriver. See Fig. 19.
- Check the fuse index to find out which fuse belongs to the component which has failed. See FUSES.
- Remove the blown fuse with the plastic clip provided. The clip is located on the holder in the fuse box.
- Replace a blown fuse (recognizable by the melted metal strip inside) with a fuse of the same amperage.
- Firmly snap the cover back onto the instrument panel face.
The various electrical circuits are protected by fuses. The fuses are clustered in a centralized unit. The unit is located behind the face panel at the end of the instrument panel.
Two spare fuses end a sticker identifying the fuses are located on the inside of the fuse box cover.
You are well advised to keep a supply of spare fuses in your vehicle. Fuses with the proper ampere ratings are available at your Audi dealer.
NOTE:
Audi S4 Quattro 2005 - FUSE - COLOR CODES
Identifying fuse color and ampere rating, refer to table below.
WARNING: Never replace a fuse with one that has a higher amperage rating. A fuse with a too high amperage could damage the electrical part and cause a fire.
