Replacing fuses

Volvo V50 Fuse box replacing fuses

There are relay/fuse boxes located in the engine compartment and the passenger compartment. If an electrical component fails to function, this may be due to a blown fuse. The easiest way to see if a fuse is blown is to remove it.

To do so:


  • Pull the fuse straight out. If a fuse is difficult to remove, special fuse removal tools are located on the inside of the fuse box covers.
  • From the side, examine the curved metal wire in the fuse to see if it is intact.
  • If the wire is broken, insert a new fuse of the same color and amperage (written on the fuse).

If fuses burn out repeatedly, have the electrical system inspected by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician.

Fuse box in the engine compartment

The fuse box in the engine compartment has positions for 36 fuses.


  • Fuses 1–18 are relays/circuit breakers and should only be removed or replaced by an authorized Volvo service technician.
  • Fuses 19–36 may be changed at any time when necessary.

Several extra fuses and a fuse removal tool to assist in removing/replacing fuses can be found on the underside of the fuse box cover in the engine compartment.

  • Turn both retaining screws (2) counterclockwise until they release.
  • Fold down the fuse box (3) half way. Pull it toward the seat until it stops. Fold it down completely. The fuse box can be unhooked completely.
