Checking and changing fuses
To prevent short-circuits and overloading of the
electrical system, the individual circuits are pro-
tected by fuses.
The fuse boxes are found in the footwell area and on
the outside of the dashboard on the driver and pas-
senger sides.
Depending on equipment, further fuse boxes are lo-
cated at various locations in the vehicle, which are
only accessible to an authorized Porsche dealer.

Checking and changing fuses
The numbering for the fuse slots is printed on the
fuse holder.
Unassigned fuse slots are not listed in the following
overviews.
1. If possible, switch off the load with the defective
fuse.
2. Open the relevant fuse box cover.
3. If necessary, carefully remove the purple plastic
strip over the fuses.
4. Remove the fuse from its slot using the plastic
gripper B in order to check it. A blown fuse can
be identified by the melted metal strip.
5. Insert a new fuse. The replacement fuse must
have the same rated current as the one it is
replacing.
6. Fit the purple plastic strip back into place.
If the same fuse blows repeatedly, the cause of the
fault must be corrected immediately.
e Visit an authorized Porsche dealer. Porsche rec-
ommends an authorized Porsche dealer, as they
have trained technicians and the necessary parts
and tools.
