Fuse box diagram

Post by TipTopTommyT »

Folks - - i looked for a fuse cross-reference in the owner's manual to no avail...also searched this site. Does anyone know where I can find such a thing? The front 12V adapter/socket is not working (rear works fine) and I'm hoping it's a fuse issue. Need to know which fuse.

Thanks!

Do you not have the fuse list on the underside of your lid?

Rob - thanks for pointing that out....didn't realize it was charted out...man, Volvo comes up big in the user-friendliness department.

Sure enough, the fuse was blown. Purchased new one and installed. Hopefully the previous owner shorted it by getting it wet or something and that it's not a systemic problem.

Thanks again.

Overloads, coins, who knows. It's pretty common with lighter sockets that point up.
Always a good idea to have a quick look, but with that new fuse, it 's probably good to go.

Here's a PDF of the fuse locations for next time.
