Which fuses go where in a vw bug?

The fuse box for a Volkswagen Beetle is typically located under the dashboard, on the driver's side. The fuses are labeled according to their function, and there are usually two fuse boxes, one for the headlights and one for the rest of the electrical system.

Here is a list of the fuses and their locations for a 1974 Volkswagen Beetle:

- Headlights: Fuse 1

- Taillights: Fuse 2

- Brake Lights: Fuse 3

- Turn signals: Fuse 4

- Horn: Fuse 5

- Radio: Fuse 6

- Heater: Fuse 7

- Cigarette lighter: Fuse 8

- Fuel pump: Fuse 9

- Starter: Fuse 10

To replace a fuse, simply pull the old fuse out of its socket and insert the new fuse. Be sure to use a fuse that is the same amperage as the old fuse. If you install a fuse that is too high of an amperage, it could damage the electrical system.

If you are having problems with your electrical system, it is always a good idea to start by checking the fuses. A blown fuse could be the cause of your problem.
