2 Answers
The fuse box of Mercedes-Benz 450 is located in the side partition of the glove box near the door on the passenger side, or near the area below the steering wheel. Introduction to automotive fuse boxes: The fuse box is responsible for transmitting driving information to various parts of the vehicle body. It is a key component in automotive electronic control elements and one of the parts with higher technical content and stricter process requirements in the vehicle body. Classification of automotive fuse boxes: Automotive fuse boxes are used to install automotive fuses. According to the size of the fuses, they can be divided into small-sized automotive fuse boxes, medium-sized automotive fuse boxes, and large-sized automotive fuse boxes. Common injection molding materials include plastic, nylon, bakelite, and PBT engineering plastics, each with different high-temperature resistance levels.
As the owner of a Mercedes 450, I remember the fuse box is usually hidden in the footwell area next to the driver's seat, requiring you to bend down or remove a small panel to access it. Last time my headlights weren't working, I found out it was a blown fuse. I opened the car door, crouched down, and found a cover under the floorboard. Lifting it revealed the fuses for inspection. There's also an additional fuse box in the engine compartment near the battery, but the one inside the car is the main one. For safety, it's best to turn off the engine before working on it, and bring a good flashlight to see clearly. The Mercedes manual has detailed diagrams, so review them beforehand to avoid mistakes. If fuses blow frequently, it might indicate voltage instability or aging wiring, requiring a professional inspection to prevent bigger issues. Checking the fuse system before driving can reduce unexpected problems—don't wait until nighttime when it's pitch black to deal with it.
