Where is the fuse box located in the Audi Q3?

Audi Q3's fuse box is located under the cover above the driver's footwell, above relay number 645. The steps to replace a fuse are as follows: 1. Before locating the fuse box, for safety reasons, please turn off the engine and power supply. 2. Locate the corresponding position, use a small pry bar to open the protective cover, and you can see the component information on the inner side of the fuse box. 3. Then use a test pen to test the fuse. When the pen does not light up, the fuse is damaged. 4. Only fuses with the same current intensity (indicated by the same color and same printed text) and the same size can be used for replacement. 5. If the corresponding component does not respond after replacement, it is necessary to promptly seek professional repair services.
Last time the fuse blew in my Audi Q3, I could see the main fuse box by opening the hood - it's under that black plastic cover right below the windshield. Just gently pry open the cover with a flathead screwdriver. There's also a spare fuse box in the cabin. I crouched in front of the passenger seat and felt around the inner side of the glove compartment, and sure enough found a small hidden compartment. If you can't find it, don't force it - the location might vary by model. I usually check the owner's manual for the location diagram first. If that doesn't work, taking a photo and asking other owners on car forums is much easier than messing around blindly.
Attention Audi Q3 owners! The fuse box is generally located in two positions: the one in the engine compartment is next to the battery, with a lightning symbol on the plastic cover, while the one in the cabin is hidden on the inner wall of the glove compartment on the passenger side. The other day, I replaced the cigarette lighter fuse myself and almost removed the wrong panel. I recommend using a phone light to locate the clips. For older models, it might be on the side of the center console, while newer models are more likely to have it in the glove box. Always turn off the power before modifying the circuit to avoid short circuits.
