Where is the fuse location for the Audi A6 cigarette lighter?
2 Answers
Audi A6 front cigarette lighter fuse is located on the side of the passenger compartment on the right side of the dashboard, and the rear cigarette lighter fuse is located in the toolbox in the trunk. Steps to replace the cigarette lighter fuse: 1. Find the fuse box of the car's electrical appliances, some are in the glove box, some are under the center console; 2. Open the cover of the fuse box, refer to the fuse location diagram pasted on the inside of the cover to find the position of the cigarette lighter fuse; 3. Use the attached fuse puller to remove the blown fuse and replace it with a new or spare cigarette lighter fuse. Note: When replacing the cigarette lighter fuse, you can check the ampere rating of the cigarette lighter fuse in the manual.
The cigarette lighter fuse for my Audi A6 is usually hidden under a small cover in the dashboard near the driver's leg area. Opening it reveals the fuse box, where the cigarette lighter fuse is typically labeled 'CIGAR' or similar, often in position F43. Last time it blew was because I plugged in a high-power air pump, leaving me unable to charge my phone. So, I recommend first confirming the cause of the blown fuse—it could be due to overload or a short circuit. Always turn off the engine and disconnect the power before checking to avoid electric shock risks. For replacement, prepare a small 15A or 20A fuse—it's an easy fix with basic tools. But if the location is unclear, consulting the user manual is safer, as this affects the vehicle's electrical stability.
