In this article, we consider the first generation BMW 1-series (E81/E82/E87/E88), produced from 2004 to 2013. Here you will find fuse box diagrams of BMW 1-series 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 (116i, 116d, 118i, 118d, 120i, 120d, 123d, 130i), get information about the location of the fuse panels inside the car, and learn about the assignment of each fuse (fuse layout) and relay.

Fuse Layout BMW 1-Series 2004-2013

Fuse box in the glove compartment

Fuse Box Location

Open the glove compartment, remove the damper (arrow 1) from the lower holder by applying forward pressure, disengage the glove compartment by pressing on both tabs (arrows 2) and fold it down.

The location of the fuses in the passenger compartment: BMW 1-series

After replacing a fuse, press the glove compartment upward until it engages and reattach the damper.
