Where is the air conditioning fuse of Lavida?
2 Answers
Volkswagen Lavida's air conditioning relay is located in the instrument panel at the lower left of the driver's seat, next to the fuse box; remove the fuse box cover, and refer to the fuse diagram on the back of the cover to locate the corresponding fuse for the car's air conditioning. The back of the cover has a tool that can be used directly to remove the fuse for inspection or replacement. Below is an introduction to air conditioning maintenance: 1. Comprehensive inspection of the air conditioning system: When using the air conditioning for the first time in summer, first check the air conditioning system, such as checking the refrigerant and whether the air conditioning filter is too dirty through the reservoir, and whether there are foreign objects in the radiator. 2. Pay attention to the cleaning of the air conditioning: The air conditioning filter should be replaced regularly, otherwise the air conditioning will produce a musty smell. In addition, the condenser should also be cleaned regularly, and the water tank should be removed for thorough cleaning.
I've been driving my Lavida for several years and have encountered the issue of the air conditioning not working more than once, usually due to a blown fuse. I remember last summer during a road trip when the AC suddenly stopped working, and I quickly looked for the fuse location. The Lavida has two fuse box locations: one is a large black box near the battery in the engine compartment, and the other is inside the cabin, specifically under a small cover below the steering wheel. The AC fuse is mostly in the interior fuse box. You need to crouch down, open the driver's door, and look towards your left foot—there's a small plastic cover that can be easily pried open. Inside, various fuses are arranged, marked with numbers or names. The AC fuse is usually labeled with a number like F29 or marked as AC. If it's blown, use the small clip provided in the car to pull it out and check. When replacing it, make sure the amperage is the same, for example, 15A. It's quite simple to do it yourself and takes less than 10 minutes, but remember to turn off the engine first to avoid electric shock. For preventive maintenance, keep a few spare fuses in the glove box to avoid being caught off guard. The Lavida's design is user-friendly, making it easy to locate.
