Fuse Box Location
To access the component, you’ll need to lower the glovebox completely. Start by removing the holders, which are typically clips or screws securing the glovebox. Then, press the fasteners located on the sides to release the glovebox fully. This will provide you with access to the area behind the glovebox, where the component is situated. Ensure you handle the fasteners carefully to avoid damage and maintain the glovebox’s integrity.
