Help please! Question on Fuses for 2.0 16v

Recommended Posts

Hi guys

I've recently had a problem of my car cutting out immediately after it being started. This happened the same day as my spoiler and sunroof stopped working. On closer inspection I found that one of my fuses had blown (it was a 15amp one, blue, 16th in from the left in pic). On replacing it the car started fine and I was on my merry way. Although, once home I've got the same issue and I can see that this same fuse has blown.

My questions are:

•   Does anyone know what this fuse is for and what may have caused it to blow?

•   Does anyone have a fuse diagram for the 2.0 16v so that I can inspect it?

•   Is the spoiler/sunroof issue linked with the car cutting out and this fuse being blown?

•   Can anyone educate me as to what the relays do vs fuses?

Thanks so much in advance!

I think you'll find the factory immobiliser uses the same fuse as the spoiler?

I'd unplug the spoiler motor for a while, if it still blows check inside the rubber bellows between the car body and the boot for broken wiring

Cheers Dox, I think you're right. Immobilisor, spoiler, sunroof and glove box bulb use it. The latter had blown and was the culprit. All's now well, thanks.
