Where is the fuse box on a 2006 Mazda 3?

Answer 1

There are two separate fuse boxes on the 2006 Mazda 3 (2.3 manual); I can not say whether this information would be correct for other years of this particular model. (A) The first of these can be found in the engine compartment on the drivers side approximately 15cm behind the headlight assembly. No tools necessary. Simply push the plastic clasp at the back of the box and lift. Mazda includes a set of fuse pliers, which have been conveniently attached to the underside of the engine compartment fuse box cover. (B) The second is located in the passenger side foot well, more specifically on the underside of the glove box. This area is a tight space with little light, a flashlight may be necessary to locate the two plastic clasps that must be pushed forward to remove the plastic shroud that conceals where the fuse box is located. Once removed, you are looking at the bottom of the fuse box. There are two finger screws that must be turned counter-clockwise to release the fuse box. Once loosened the fuse box should hang loosely revealing the fuse heads. Whenever changing fuses: 1. Be sure the ignition to the car is turned to the off position and the keys have been removed 2. Before replacing the fuse, be sure you have identified the cause of the blown fuse, failure to do so can result in serious injury or further damage to the vehicle.
