BMW 1-Series Fuse Box Diagram (E81/E82/E87/E88; 2004-2013)

The BMW 1-Series is a popular luxury car that has been in production since 2004. The E81, E82, E87, and E88 are the four generations of the BMW 1-Series that were produced from 2004 to 2013.

Fuses are important safety devices that protect your BMW 1-Series’s electrical system from damage. If a fuse blows, it means that there is a short circuit or other problem in the electrical system. When a fuse blows, it will need to be replaced in order for the electrical system to work properly.

This blog post will provide you with a fuse box diagram for the BMW 1-Series (E81/E82/E87/E88; 2004-2013). The fuse box diagram will show you the location of all the fuses in the car, as well as their corresponding amperage ratings. This information can be helpful if you ever need to troubleshoot an electrical problem in your BMW 1-Series.

First, open the glove compartment. Take out the damper (pointed by arrow 1) by pushing it forward. Press on both tabs (pointed by arrow 2) to unlock and lower the glove compartment. When you’re done replacing a fuse, push the glove compartment back up until it clicks into place, and then reattach the damper.
