The BMW E90 is the platform for the fifth generation of the BMW 3 Series, with production of the sedan starting in 2005. The station wagon (E91), coupe (E92), and convertible (E93) were produced in 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 years. The car underwent restyling during this time. We offer comprehensive information on the location and diagrams of fuses and relays for BMW E90.
On different models, the list of fuse locations may differ slightly, we present diagrams of the most common modifications of the BMW 3-series.

Passenger fuse box
It is located in the glove box. To access it, turn the two latches and remove the cover. If you have difficulty doing this, see the video at the end of this article.
On the back of the protective cover there should be a brochure with your fuse and relay locations. It looks something like this.
