To see whether a fuse has blown, check whether the metal strip has melted. The fuses are located in the footwell underneath the foot rest (on LHD Audi Q7s) -A- Fig. 340► or behind a cover (on RHD Audi Q7s) -B-. Further fuses are located at the end of the dash panel (driver s side) -C- Fig. 341► and behind the left side trim in the luggage compartment -D-. Switch off the ignition and all electrical equipment. Refer to the following tables to identify the fuse for the failed component. Take the screwdriver and the interchangeable Torx bit out of the Audi Q7 tool kit link►. Remove the foot rest or the appropriate cover. If fitted, pull the coloured plastic frame out of the fuse carrier Fig. ► (you can then dispose of the plastic frame). Take the clip from the rear side of the foot rest -A- or cover -B-. Use the clip to pull out the fuse. Blown fuses should always be replaced with a fuse of the same rating. Refit the foot rest or cover. Colour coding for fuses
WARNING Never attempt to repair a fuse or replace a blown fuse by fitting a fuse with a higher ampere rating. This could damage the electrical system - risk of fire! CAUTION If a newly replaced fuse blows again after a short time, the electrical system must be checked by a qualified workshop as soon as possible. Note
