Fused internal bulbs?
« on: November 30, 2012, 06:05:09 pm »
Ok I am in the final changes of changing the internal lights to LEDs.....changed the sunvoisor lights over and all the internal lights have now cut out.

Thinks its going to be the fuse. Anyone know how to reset it?

Yes there's a mini 7.5A fuse about three rows from the top, you'll see it has popped.

Did the same earlier this week  :innocent:
Used to have Edition 30 - number 009 and a GT TDI 140.
Now have an S4 B8 Avant (stage 2)

Pardon my ignorance but that's the fuse box on the drivers side by the level switch?

Yes, open your door almost all the way, wedge off the panel cover and you'll see your fuse box.

I got 120 mini fuses off ebay for about £3 this week as I realised I have no spares for any of our cars.

hmm, found the 7.5 one. It's sitting there like everyone else. Going to pop to halfords and see if they have fuses and the one's I have are too big!

*Update: All working. Thank you!!
