2 Answers
BMW X5 fuse box is located inside the decorative panel on the right side of the trunk and the glove box. The new generation BMW X5 comes standard with dual front airbags, front and rear head airbags, driver and front passenger side airbags, auto-dimming driver's side exterior mirror, active protection system, X-shaped intelligent laser headlights, LED fog lights, full-LED 3D floating taillights, automatic high beam control, and collision prevention assist as standard equipment. The BMW X5 is the brand's first four-wheel-drive SUV model, with dimensions of 4930mm in length, 2004mm in width, 1776mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2975mm.
I used to drive a BMW X5, and the location of the fuse box depends on the situation. The one in the engine compartment is on the left side. Open the hood and look toward the driver's seat—there's a black plastic cover that you can pry open to access the main fuses for the vehicle's electrical system. There's also a secondary fuse box behind the glove compartment on the passenger side, which you can only see after completely removing the glove box. This one specifically manages the fuses for the car's interior electronics. If you're replacing them yourself, prepare a small pair of tweezers. The back of the cover has a fuse layout diagram. It's advisable to check the location diagram in the manual first, as there might be slight differences depending on the model year. Remember to disconnect the power before removing any fuses, and beginners should take photos to record the original positions to avoid confusion when reinstalling them.
