E39 Fuse Locations

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys -

I am looking for the fuses on an 97 e39 528i. Found the ones in the boot (near batt) - but surely there are more.

The drivers side seat doesn't work (electric) - passengers does.

Cheers for any help.

Andrew, open glovebox, fuse compartment along the top - drop down a cover flap, would have thought both seats would be on one circuit but dont know for sure & dont have car here at the minute to check

Cheers

Grant

Sweet - got it sorted. They are on separate fuses btw.

However - it keeps blowing that fuse after a while. Is there a common point on these cars that the wiring wears out and earths or something?

i would suspect the wiring to the seat itself.The seat moves so must flex the wires,stuff gets caught under seats etc.Have a look and see if there are some bare wires or stressed connections.Sounds like a short circuit,might be in the switch too.
