Re: 2011 polo fuse layout

Hi wussel

Your point is valid and correct as I have also been down the same route in trying to get hold of the fuse layout diagram. The retailer couldn't supply this info, nor was it in the owners manual.

I called VW UK on 0800 333666 to raise this, they advised that due to the techincal advancements in the cars today, they could not accept liability if something went faulty as a result of a fuse being changed based on their diagram.

They pointed me to their ERWIN site http://www.erwin.volkswagen.de where you would have to pay to access the details. I think a one hour access costs about €5.00 which I think is a complete rip off considering all other cars I have ever bought already had the fuse diagram supplied in the car or Owners Manual or both.

Alternatively they suggested that I take my car into the dealer at my cost as fuses are not covered under warranty.

I have escalated this to VW and am waiting for a reply.

FYI I know you only mentioned it as an example but if the front wipers fuse popped, it is likley to be the 10a fuse at Fuse location 2 (Washer Pump) the associated fuse for the Wipers is location 47 which is a 20a fuse. I had to change Fuse 2 and mine started working ok.

The horn is positioned at location 46 (20a fuse too).

SA=Holder A, SB=Holder B, SC=Holder C.

The reason the car does not come with a fuse card is that there are a huge number of fusing variations on the Polo 6R as you can see below. Fuse 47 is the wiper motor fuse.

Re: 2011 polo fuse layout

Gatecrasher
This is perfect.
Many thanks

 

re 2011 polo fuse layout, on the 1.2 TDi polo match I purchased in jan 2012 the fuse layout is slightly different, the bank of 3x8 fuses 1-24 appears to the right of the two banks of 18 fuses 25-60, it would appear that the numbering on the banks works from right to left i.e 87654321 in crashers listing fuse 49 is listed twice and although my polo has daylight running lights -no fuse 56 is in place in my polo - any help appreciated
thanks

 

It is disgraceful that the fuse layout cannot be provided. It is a rip-off exercise intended to create work for VW mechanics who charge ludicrous prices. A friend recently had to pay 20 quid to have washer pump fuse replaced.

 

£20 isn't too bad as it should last a long time.

 

Crasher's post in really useful, though it appears that with RH drive cars the under-dash fuseboard is fitted the other way up, which makes finding the correct number fuse a bit confusing. Confuseing, geddit?
Oh please yourselves!

 

They never provide one the right way around, you have to mentally flip it or look for the numbers moulded into the box which are SO tiny I can't read them any more as I am too old....

 

Have a look in PDF files

 

Im having a problem with my sunroof it is stuck, i wanted to give it a try and change the fuse but the relay published here is not the same as the one im having in my car, i have 2011 Polo 6R and there is only one fuse#49 and its 15A, but the fuse #49 30A which is responsible of the sunroof i cant find at all, some websites says that after may 2010 the relay has changed. Please help already thankful.

First posts normally go in introductions else you could get a free fix and we never see you again!!!

Your car spec says 0, only what I've added from this thread.

Is this your 2011 Polo 6R or are you trying to fix someone else's?

 

I would have to look this up at work, remind me tomorrow.
