Fuses

[julianps]

Hi (newbie alert), I'm using my FiL's car and need to find the fuses. I'm sure they're behind panel below the steering column but that panel is so hard to pull out from the bottom I'm sure not to damage something. Can you confirm the location and confirm the mode for release?

 

Many thanks

Hi, yes I saw that. Still says (in effect) pull from the bottom of the cover. But it's SO tight I'm afraid to break it ... when I pull I can feel everything bending and stretching. And still it won't come away.

This page suggests a part number of 6RU857506B for the cover, and google images shows one like this below. It looks to have a push-fit fitting at each side (ringed in red), near the bottom corners. Maybe focus on trying to pull those out one at a time?

I found this too on my 13 reg rapid it does come off with a tough pull

Is very tight the first time off. You won't break anything.
