Where is the interior Fuse Panel????

[zeus268]

Hey Guys,

I feel like an idiot asking this but I've already checked everywhere in my car and checked the owners manual and I STILL can't find the interior fuse panel!
The manual says it is "located under the instrument panel to the left of the steering wheel" I pulled this panel off and I couldn't see the fuse box!
What am I missing here?
I really need to pull the fuse for the SYNC/audio system because my car is not recognizing my ipod or iphone for the last few days. Turning off the engine does not help.......
Can someone give me a "dummies" explanation on how to find the fuse panel please?????

Thx

It is really up under the dash, you almost have to be upside down to get to the darn thing, it is to the left of the steering column but it is really, really hard to see an get at.

Thanks Mark, with the help of a 5'2" mechanic I was finally able to get to it! What a PITA location for a fuse panel!!!! My 6'8" ass wasn't going to fit in there so I got our smallest mechanic at my dealership to get in there for me.

In case anyone is interested, pulling the SYNC fuse does in fact help if you're having any troubles with your USB connection or bluetooth hookup for your cell! Everything is back to normal with my SHO now! :wave:

Andrew, I have to admit, I had a heck of a time finding the fusebox too. I needed to replace the interior light fuse that I blew when putting in the LEDs (my stupidity). I really couldn't get to fuse panel because of my wide a**, so I had the service manager at my local dealer change it for me...I'm also going to let him change out the front marker lights to the LEDs too(my old short arms just don't have the flexiblity to reach the fixtures any more. So I can appreciate your problem with getting to the panel. Glad to hear everything is OK!

Thanks, guys -- If I ever get this car I'll try to eyeball that f/box in case I ever need access.
