Volkswagen Amarok was produced in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016. Then the car underwent restyling and the updated one is being produced from 2017 to the present. There are 3 trim levels in Amarok – Trendline, Comfortline and Highline with diesel and petrol engines. In our material you can get acquainted with the designation of fuse boxes and relays Volkswagen Amarok, their diagrams and photographs. Separately, we note the fuse for the cigarette lighter.

Locations
For all Volkswagen Amarok models, the following location is characteristic: the main boxes with fuses and relays in the passenger compartment and the box on the battery cover. But depending on the level of electrical equipment, it is possible to place both an additional unit and individual elements, especially for cars manufactured after 2013.
- Fuse 1 for fresh air blower -S97- and fuse 1 for ABS control unit
- Fuse holder C -SC- (72/68 fuses)
- Fuse-link block on the cover AKB (SA)
- Cover fuse box AKB (SB)
Passenger compartment
Fuse box
It is located under the dashboard on the driver’s side. To access the fuses, you must release the locking lever. The fuse box can then be folded down.

I have a 2015 amarok just the basic model. Some how the day parkers are not working. The globes are working have replaced both and the fuses look to be fine.
Any suggestions on how to get the day parkers going again
Vcds will activate drl lights Or at least help you troubleshoot them
Hi
Would anyone know where the IPC module is located.
The car cranks over but won’t start and the instrument cluster is turned of.
I get an error that the IPC lost communication with instrument cluster
My 2015 basic amarok has failed its mot because of a rear fog light not working. I’ve looked at that different fuse box diagrams and they all say different things.
Anybody help please.
My 2015 basic Amarok cooling fan comes on all the time and stays on even when you just turn on the ignition without starting it comes on, stays on for about 20sec after you shut/turn off the ignition
Any ideas what’s happening here .? One thing after another with VW electric’s
Hi Paul, did you ever solve this issue. My fan has just started doing the same. I’ve pulled the fuse for now.
Cheers,
Wayne
The day lights and the normal lights are on the same bulb. The day lights can actually be blown while the normal lights work perfectly when you turn them on. Pull out the bulbs and you will probably see one of the filaments in the bulb has blown. This was my issue in my 2015 Amarok
