Up-to-date Citigo Fuse Box Diagram?

[LEdgeley]

My wife's just taken delivery of her 67 plate SE Greentech and I'd like to hard wire in a dashcam for her, but the fuse box bears little relation to the diagrams in the manual.

 

The manual suggests I should have two fuse boxes in the cabin as it has START-STOP  (Main fuse box, START-STOP fuse box) but I can only find the one under the dashboard and it looks like the one in this thread (see attached). Pretty much the only thing it has in common with the manual is that there are three rows of 17 fuses. However they're different sizes, and the spare circuits don't match up with the numbers in the manual (e.g. circuits 7 and 8 should be main beam headlights according to the manual but are free in my fuse box).

 

Does anyone have an up-to-date diagram for the Citigo fuse box?

I only have citigo diagrams marked May 2013 onwards. I could send you those.

Also a friend has autodata, could grab the info from there if you give me your engine code.

There might be 3 fuse boxes - see images

 

there were different revisions/versions of this boxes - need to know year of your car to help you.

67 plate is late 2017 to early 2018.

Try to compare with this diagram:

I'm NOT saying this yours - compare. Also , don't you have car manual ?

I'm not OP.

He said that the manual doesn't fit with what he has in the box. He also claims not to have the side fuse box, which is odd because he has a stop-start system.

The links to manual pages he provided don't fit with what I have seen in the wiring diagram.

I'll post what I have if he wants it, but I'm dubious as to the help it offers.

OK, so I gave in and spent €8.40 for an hour on erwin - downloaded as much as I could in the time!

With a bit of detective work, I've worked out the following, which is correct to the best of my knowledge - hope others find it useful!

According to the docs, the citigo fuse box layout was changed for cars built from November 2015 onwards, i.e. the manual is reasonably correct for vehicles built before this date (the layout remained fixed but revisions were made to the fuse assignment in August 2011, May 2013, November 2014 and May 2015).

As far as I can tell, Fuse box D (the additional fuse box inside the dash for Start-Stop cars) was also deleted in November 2015. The documentation for fuse box D is labelled "only valid until November 2015" and the wiring diagrams specific to my VIN do not show any fuses labeled "SD". I believe when Skoda changed the fusebox layout they also simplified some of the wiring meaning they could get away without this additional fuse box in Start-Stop vehicles.

This is information that should have been provided in the owner's manual, so I have few qualms in sharing it here. However to avoid a spurious takedown notice I've drawn my own diagram from the physical layout of my fuse box, which is attached. I've also attached PDFs I've created based on my interpretation of the fuse assignment tables and wiring diagrams that I hope are reasonably accurate - Certainly the "August 2016 onwards" table seems to match my fuse-box reasonably closely - there may well have been more changes between November 2016 and September 2017 (when our car was built).

 

Anyway after all that I went out with my multimeter and believe I have found the best places to wire in a dashcam. Fuse 18 is a permanent live that is not in use in our car as we have no sunroof. Fuse 47 is a switched live that is not in use in our car as we chose climate control as an option. Sadly they're both full size fuses rather than mini, so I'll need to pick up a different repair wire from the one I speculatively ordered on eBay, but them's the breaks.

Thank you for sharing with us this info.

Going to be hard wiring a dash cam in shortly so this'll come in handy.

I'd check you have room in the fuse box to actually fit the hard wiring loom - I bought a Nextbase one to match my Nextbase dashcam (as I have done for my other cars) but after an hour or so of trying various fuses / configurations failed miserably to be able to actually close the fusebox lid with it connected (and I wasn't prepared to modify / cut the lid to make it fit).  The fusebox is tiny compared to the 3 other cars I've hardwired.  In the end I've simply left it 'permanently' plugged into the 12v socket and returned the hard wire kit.

I’ll only be using a piggyback fuse for the hardwiring in the fuse box area and I already know the fuse box lid won’t fit back on due to its small size.

Does anyone have an up-to-date diagram for the Citigo fuse box?

 

 

Hello. I have almost the same fuses like the ones on the image that you have posted here on my VW UP 1.0MPI 75bhp, 5 speed manual from 2019. My VW UP  has a few extras like: parking sensors, heated seats, maxidot, foglights with the cornering function, start/stop. Based on this image and the pdf documents where there are some infos, I have decided to hardwire my Viofo A139 using the position 17 (rear window wiper) for the ACC and the position 34 (interior lamp) for the BATTERY. In both cases the fuses for the dashcam will be 3A. I have tried some empty slots but realize that they have no connectors and no wires behind the box. This is why I chose the already used ones.

Can any of you guide me and tell me if my plan is correct and maybe give me some ideas?

 

Thank you

I'm currently having an issue with a fuse and I have the above layout on my car, but the manual is showing a different one? Is it possible you still have the manual for the above please?

@ArtisticlyFunny what year is your Citigo?

They oddly weren't working a minute ago 🥲 I have now! It's 2016, having so many issues with it at the moment

[Breezy_Pete]

If you wish to know its exact build date (might be close to some of the changeover dates in the files), I can look up for you if you let me know the VIN.
