Fuses and relays
| Fuses and relays |
| Power distribution panels |
All power distribution panels are included in the wiring harnesses. In the engine bay there are
| • |
maxi fuse board 501
|
|
| • |
engine bay main fuse board 342a
|
|
| • |
engine bay main relay board 342b
|
|
The engine bay fuse and relay boards 342a and 342b are integrated into the same unit.
The dashboard fuse and relay boards form two separate units:
| • |
fuse board 22a
|
|
| • |
relay board 22b LHD
|
|
| • |
relay board 22b RHD
|
|
In the Convertible model there are another two relay boards, one at each of the rear-seat speakers:
| • |
left-hand side 519LH
|
|
| • |
right-hand side 519RH
|
|
All fuses are mounted on fuse boards. Only the passenger-seat relay is located apart from the relay boards.
| General |
The fuses are of the blade type. Compared with older types, and taken together with the connection sockets, they give a lower voltage drop. A further point is that they have greater resistance to corrosion.

Checking a blade fuse
On every blade fuse there are test sockets that make it possible to check whether the fuse is good without having to take it out of the fuse box. If there is a voltage on both sockets the fuse is good.If the fuse is out of the box, you can see whether the wire has blown.
