Where is the central locking fuse located in the Passat Lingyu?

The central locking fuse of the car is located in the fuse box on the left side under the steering wheel. Additional information is as follows: I. Central Locking: The full name is Central Control Door Lock, which is an automotive accessory. Using this lock allows you to remotely open and lock doors without inserting the key into the lock hole. It consists of a door lock switch, an actuator, and a controller. II. Functions: 1. Central Control: When the driver locks the door next to them, all other doors are simultaneously locked. The driver can use the door lock switch to open all doors at once or open a specific door individually. 2. Speed Control: When the vehicle reaches a certain speed, all doors automatically lock to prevent passengers from accidentally opening the doors by operating the door handles. 3. Individual Control: In addition to the door next to the driver, other doors are equipped with separate spring lock switches, allowing independent control of the opening and locking of a single door.
I've been driving the Passat Lingyu for several years. The central locking fuse usually hides in the fuse box under the dashboard, right around the driver's knee area. To find it, first turn off the engine, open the door and crouch down to take a look. There's a cover with a fuse icon—lift it and locate the fuse position labeled SC37 or related markings. Last time my central locking failed, I checked there and found a blown fuse. Replacing it fixed the issue. By the way, occasional central locking problems aren't always caused by the fuse—it could be faulty door switches or circuit aging causing interference. Remember to close windows when parking to prevent water ingress, as moisture can corrode components and trigger malfunctions. Regular inspections are always a good idea for peace of mind.
