On Opel Astra N cars, fuse boxes play a very important role in protecting the vehicle from fire due to a sharp increase in voltage. Therefore, some information about their location, functioning and device will be very useful for a motorist.
Fuse box "Opel Astra N": purpose and device
The electrical equipment of the car plays a rather important role in the functioning of the entire vehicle. The operation of the headlights, ignition system, instrument panel illumination, car cigarette lighter and radio depends on the health of the car's electrical wiring.
As noted earlier, the fuse box is designed to protect the car from fire during a sharp increase in voltage. Fuses take a hit and are disposable. must be replaced immediately. Fuse blocks can be installed in the cabin or under the hood of the vehicle.
It should be understood that each car manufacturer installs fuse blocks individually: on the Opel Astra N model, for example, they are located under the hood and in the cabin (next to the car cigarette lighter). However, this element can be installed in absolutely any part of the car: trunk, hood or interior. Trucks have about four to five fuse boxes.
On each car, the location of the safety blocks is individual: in order to find the safety blocks on a particular car model, you must refer to the vehicle's operational documentation.
The Opel Astra N fuse box consists of a variety of relays and fuses directly. Each element is responsible for protecting a particular component of the vehicle.
On many models of the Opel Astra N car, two safety blocks are usually installed: one under the hood (driver's side), the other is located in the luggage compartment and is located under the outer skin cover, also on the driver's side. The location of the components of the blocks, as well as the diagram, differs depending on the vehicle configuration. This arrangement is typical for the fuse box "Opel Astra N" 2011 and 2010 release.
Therefore, for owners of these car models, the process of replacing parts will be approximately the same. After all, the 2010 Opel Astra N fuse blocks were transferred without changes to the latest car model.
Preparing to "intervention" in the safety block
Before you start searching for the fuse box, you must turn off the power unit and turn off the ignition by turning the key to the OFF position. This must be done to prevent electric shock or shorting of the Opel Astra N fuse box 2008, 2010, 2011, 2007, 2006. Well, avoiding these consequences will save the vehicle from fire.
Since when disassembling the fuse box there is a risk of closing the contacts with a screwdriver, safety precautions must be strictly observed. Also, do not engage in disassembly of the part, if before that there was no experience with similar car breakdowns. It is cheaper and easier to drive a car to specialists for a complete and thorough inspection.
How to open the fuse box?
It is convenient to open the lid with a screwdriver. On the left side there are clips in the amount of two pieces. The process of opening the cover of the fuse box "Opel Astra N" in 2007 and cars of other years of manufacture is as follows:
- a screwdriver is inserted into the slot, which is located between the clamp and the cover;
- the clamp is slightly bent, then the cover should be lifted;
- a similar operation is carried out with the second clamp;
- the cover is placed vertically.
If you do all these operations, you will be able to remove the cover without any problems, it remains only to slightly pull it up.
The 2006 Opel Astra N fuse box consists of two parts. Therefore, the disassembly process looks slightly different. The cover is removed from the block for mounting relays and fuses. To dismantle it, press on the internal clamps. After that, in a similar way (pulling up), the cover is removed, thereby opening access to the main fuses, which are placed in a row.
It is worth noting that the fuse box for the 2007 Opel Astra N also consists of two parts. Moreover, this car model is the last one on which a similar part was installed. The fuse box "Opel Astra N" in 2008 and subsequent years of production is one-piece, not divided into parts.
Fuse block decoding
After the cover has been dismantled, the “bonnet” fuse box of the Opel Astra N 2008 and other years of manufacture, on which an integral part is installed, opens up. An open fuse box is an ordered arrangement of fuses and relays. Each element is able to withstand a certain amount of electricity, and is also responsible for the devices of the car.
For ease of identification, each fuse has its own color, depending on how much current it can handle. Based on this, the pinout of the Opel Astra N fuse box is formed.
The arrangement of relays and fuses in different car models with different trim levels will be different. Therefore, before intervening, you need to make sure that the existing scheme fits your Opel Astra N car.
"Distribution" of relays and fuses: the first type of configuration
The fuse box installed on the Opel Astra N, with the basic configuration of the car, protects a number of important elements from failure as a result of a sudden power surge.
Anti-lock braking system fuses are capable of withstanding 20 to 30 amperes; climate control, as well as the system responsible for heating and ventilation of the passenger compartment of the car, can withstand about 30 amperes. The fan operating in the complex of parts of the cooling system is protected by a fuse that can withstand from 30 to 40 amperes. The central lock withstands 20 amperes.
It is worth noting that the above list does not fully reflect all vehicle systems that are protected by fuses. In order to find out the complete list, you must carefully study the technical documentation of the car.
Rear fuse box "Opel Astra N"
As mentioned earlier, the Opel Astra N has two safety blocks: in the front, in the engine compartment of the car, and in the trunk. There are some designations on the fuses and trunk relay that require decoding:
- Heated rear window - KZ X131.
- Terminal 15a - K2 X131.
- Terminal 15 - K1 X131.
A complete decoding of the Opel Astra N fuse box is located in the technical documentation of the vehicle.
Fuse box in trunk
The fuse box in the trunk of the Opel Astra N is located on its left side. In a car with a hatchback body type, you can get to the block by doing the following: the round-shaped locking elements are unscrewed, then the casing cover is lowered. The sedan also has a small cover equipped with two handles. You need to pull on them, disconnect the clamps, and lift the cover up.
As with the hood fuse box, the fully equipped vehicle has the largest and most complex fuse box.
How to diagnose fuse performance?
Often in a car, problems begin with electrical equipment, as well as with ignition. One of the causes of the malfunctions is the failure of the fuses. However, before climbing into the safety block and checking the fuses for the fact of operability, it is necessary to check other possible malfunctions: perhaps the problem is a dead battery or a burnt out light bulb.
Currently, fuses with a transparent body are used. Thanks to him, you can immediately determine whether the work item or not. If the fusible part of the fuse is melted, then such a device must be replaced immediately. However, on some fuses, this is quite difficult to see, so you should also use a device that will allow you to accurately determine whether the fuse has failed or not.
When checking the performance of fuses, it is necessary to follow a certain algorithm that will significantly save time and effort:
- Visual inspection of the fuse.
- Using a tester and indicator to determine if a fuse is working.
- If the indicator lamp is activated and a short circuit is indicated, the fuse should be replaced: it is in good condition.
- If nothing happened during the check, then the fuse must be replaced.
Checking by the indicator and tester is also carried out in a certain sequence:
- Pull the fuse out of its socket and clean its contacts.
- Study the instructions of the indicator and tester before checking, in accordance with the instructions, connect the fuse contacts. When an indicator appears that reports a short circuit, we can conclude that the fuse is working. When checking the working fuse with an indicator on the device, the light should light up.
- Install a new fuse in place of the blown one. The main condition for replacement is the fact that the characteristics of the new fuse must comply with the recommendations of the automaker.
If there is no special device at hand, then you can always drive the car for an unscheduled inspection. Experts will be able to say with confidence whether replacement of old fuses is really necessary.
What if the problem is not the fuses?
If the checks have shown that the fuses are operational, and the performance of the automotive systems has not been restored, then a complete diagnosis of the vehicle should be carried out at a specialized service center.
Independent intervention in other car systems can lead to quite serious breakdowns: it is then that a serious overhaul will be needed. Many motorists, wanting to save on service inspection and maintenance, trying to figure out a car breakdown on their own, only lose a huge amount of time, and also face huge cash costs.
Precautions when replacing fuses
When there is everything you need to independently find out the cause of a car malfunction, you need to be extremely careful when intervening in the fuse box. After all, their replacement implies the observance of a number of precautions:
- Before opening the cover of the safety block, turn off the engine and turn off the ignition.
- All operations should be carried out carefully.
- Fuses are removed carefully.
- It is not necessary to rely only on a visual inspection of the fuse, it must also be checked with instruments.
- Before you engage in self-diagnosis and replacement of fuses, you should carefully study the information about which fuse is responsible for what.
- The new fuse must comply with the requirements and recommendations of the car manufacturer, which apply to the technical parameters of the device.
The above precautions will allow not only to “bloodlessly” repair the car and replace failed fuses, but also protect the repairer from electric shock, and the car from fire. Ignoring the above recommendations can cause a fire in the vehicle's wiring, as well as quite serious damage from electricity.
At the same time, do not disregard and postpone the replacement of blown fuses. If you drive with defective fuses, then at the next power surge, there is a high risk that the car's systems that were left without protection will fail. And replacing them is much more expensive than replacing fuses.
Conclusion
Summing up the above, it is worth noting that replacing fuses is a rather important operation. After all, the performance of all vehicle systems that are “powered” by electricity depends on their performance.
The main reason for the failure of the fuses is a sharp increase in the voltage of the electric current. The fuse blows. Fuses are "consumables", they cannot be repaired, they are replaced.
You can visually diagnose a fuse failure by the fusible element: if it is melted, then a replacement should be made. But visual inspection is best confirmed by using a tester and an indicator. Some fuse models simply cannot be diagnosed by visual inspection alone.
The replacement of fuses is carried out only when it is known which system each fuse is responsible for. This information is in the technical documentation for the vehicle.
Fuses are replaced with care. Failure to do so may result in a fire in the vehicle or severe electric shock.
Do not delay replacing a blown fuse. The next sudden increase in voltage can cause a short circuit and fire the vehicle. The cost of fuses is not particularly high, so you should not save on this small, but quite important part in the vehicle's electrical system.
In any car, the fuse box performs the function of protecting electronics and all devices powered by it. If a short circuit occurs in the circuit, then it is the fuse in the PSU (fuse box) that will take the first blow. Today you will learn what circuit G looks like, where the blocks are located in this car model and how to replace blown fuses.

Fuse Location
Before you find out where the PSUs are located in the Opel Astra G, you must remember that there should always be an additional set of fuses in the car. In case of failure of one element, it is advisable to immediately replace it, but in no case should a wire be used.
Some car owners take an ordinary piece of wire or a paper clip and place it with both ends in place of the blown fuse. They motivate this by saying that "there is nothing wrong with that, if you don't drive like that for long before replacing the fuse." But it is strictly forbidden to do this, otherwise it may be necessary to replace the PSU.
PSU scheme
On Opel Astra G models, most of the fuses are located in the block, which is located under the dashboard of the car. In particular, it is installed under the dashboard on the left side opposite the driver's seat behind the glove box. To get to the PSU, it is necessary to dismantle the facing part of the box for small things, then pull the bottom of the unit and bring it into working position. The layout of the device is shown below.
In addition, in these car models there is also an additional unit responsible for protecting electrical equipment and other devices. This protection is optional for the vehicle and there are eight main fuses in this PSU. The PSU is located in the engine compartment on the driver's side. Below are the diagrams of both blocks.

How to remove and replace fuses?
Replacing elements in a power supply unit located in the passenger compartment.
Having unscrewed the glove box, you will see your PSU. Pull it towards you by the bottom part to bring it into working condition.
- First, find the box for small items, located on the driver's side. Free the glove box.
- Using a wrench, unscrew the screws securing the glove compartment lining.
- To bring the PSU into working condition, it must be pulled towards you by the bottom.
- By doing this, you can replace the fuses. To dismantle the burnt element, you can use special tweezers designed specifically for extracting components. They are on the right side of the PSU. Please note: before removing the fuse, you must turn off the device for which the element is responsible. To do this, turn off the ignition in the car or disconnect the battery. To determine if a component is working, it will be enough to look at it. The metal thread in it will be burned out.
- After dismantling the old PSU component, install a new one in its place. At the same time, do not forget that the denomination of the components, that is, the numbers, must match. Also they will have the same color.
- After replacing the component, assemble everything in reverse order.
Let's start replacing the relays located in the power supply unit in the engine compartment. Before starting the process, it is necessary to turn off the ignition and turn off the engine.
- Open the hood and on the right side, near the driver's seat, find the PSU cover. You will need a screwdriver to remove it. On the left side of the PSU, we can see two clips.
- Insert a screwdriver into the gap between the PSU cover and the clip.
- The clip needs to be bent a little, and the PSU cover should be lifted so that the clip does not snap into place when you release it. Similar actions must be carried out with the second clamp.
- The cover can then be removed.
- After doing this, you will see a PSU with fuses and relays. Remove the burnt element and replace it with a new one. The assembly of the PSU must be done in the reverse order.

141 ..Opel Astra N. Location of fuses, fuses and relays and their replacement
Most vehicle electrical power circuits are protected by fuses. Headlights, fan motors, fuel pump and other powerful current consumers are connected via relays. Fuses and relays are installed in mounting blocks, which are located in the trunk of the car under the sidewall lining on the left side and in the engine compartment next to the battery.
The designations of the fuses and relays of the mounting block installed in the trunk under the lining of the left sidewall are shown in fig. 10.1.
In table. 10.1 indicates the purpose of these fuses, fuses and relays, but on a particular car model, some of the circuits indicated in the table may not be available.
The designations of the fuses and relays of the mounting block installed in the engine compartment on the right in the direction of travel are shown in fig. 10.2.
In table. 10.2 indicates the purpose of these fuses, fuses and relays, but on a particular car model, some of the circuits indicated in the table may not be available.
1. To gain access to the fuse mounting block located in the trunk, turn 90 ° two hatch cover latches in the left side trim ...
2….and flip down the cover.
3. To gain access to the mounting block located in the engine compartment, press the two latches with a screwdriver ...
4….and remove its cover.
Note.
Spare fuses B and tweezers A are fixed in special sockets of the body of the mounting block located in the trunk to remove the fuses from the mounting blocks.
5. Before replacing a blown fuse or fuse, find out the cause of the blown and fix it. When looking for a malfunction, look at the ones listed in Table. 10.1 and 10.2 circuits that this fuse or fuse protects.
Warning.
Do not replace fuses with fuses of a different amperage or homemade jumpers, as this may damage electrical appliances and even cause a fire.
6. Remove the tweezers from the base of the mounting block located in the trunk.
7. Grab the fuse with tweezers ...
8….and remove it from the connector.
Note.
This is how a blown fuse looks like (the jumper shown by the arrow inside the holder has blown and opened). To replace a fuse, use a spare fuse of the same rating (and color).
9. Install a fuse of the same rating as the removed one into the connector.
10. If replacement is necessary, remove the relay from the mounting block by rocking it from side to side ...
11….and install a new relay.
For some reason, the cigarette lighter fuse burnout on the Opel Astra H is a common occurrence. We have prepared a step by step guide on how to replace it.
Step 1. We are looking for a hatch in the trunk
First you need to find the fuse box hatch in the trunk. It usually looks like this:
The fuse box in the Opel Astra H sedan usually looks like this:
If your hatch looks different from the one shown in the picture, then you have a rare equipment, this happens, it's okay, no need to panic.
Step 2. Determine the type of fuse box
Now we need to understand which fuse box your Astra is equipped with. The fact is that most of the cars of this brand were equipped with a “full mounting block”, but some cars, especially the basic configuration, were equipped with a “simple mounting block”. A simple mounting block is much smaller and very rare. But everything happens.
This is what the “complete mounting block” of fuses looks like: 
This is what a “simple mounting block” of fuses looks like: 
Step 3: Replacing the cigarette lighter fuse
If you have a simple mounting block (this happens VERY RARE), then you can safely close the trunk, there is no fuse you need in it. Open the hood and change the FЕ36 fuse, rated 7.5A (if the cigarette lighter backlight is covered, you can also change it - FЕ33, 5A). But, as we wrote above, this is a rarity.
If you have a traditional full mounting block in the trunk, then you need to change the FR29 fuse, rated 15A (FR18, 5A - backlight): 
What to do if the cigarette lighter is stuck?
Most often this is due to a blown fuse. Just replace it and the fuse will blow back.
What should I do if the charger plug does not stay in the cigarette lighter and falls out?
Instead of changing the whole cigarette lighter, buy a 2-way splitter and plug it into the cigarette lighter.
What is the breakdown if the fuse blows immediately after turning on the device (for example, a navigator) in the cigarette lighter?
Try plugging the cigarette lighter into the cigarette lighter socket and see what happens. If the fuse blows again, then the problem is in the car's electrical circuit, if the fuse does not blow, then the problem is in the connected device.
After replacing the cigarette lighter fuse, the central locking stopped working, what should I do?
We have already written a separate one with a detailed manual on what to do in this case.
What should I do if the wheel pump is too powerful and blows the fuse?
Instead of buying a new pump, it's better to cut off the cigarette lighter plug and solder a couple of crocodiles for the battery. Connect the pump directly to the battery.
Which inverter is suitable for Opel Astra H?
Choose an inverter with a maximum power of 120 watts. If you buy a more powerful one, the fuses will fly out.
Where is the socket in the trunk of the Opel Astra H?
The socket in the trunk is located on the right wall of the trunk, but not all trim levels have it. Those who have it are lucky - you can connect a vacuum cleaner to it while cleaning the trunk or a car refrigerator on long trips. 
All opel astra h models usually have two fuse boxes
- under the hood (driver's side)
- under the outer trim cover in the trunk (driver's side)
Depending on the configuration of your car, the schemes of these blocks may be different - with a different number and arrangement of elements.
The fuse box in the engine compartment is located on the left.
Before looking for it, be sure to turn off the engine and turn off the ignition (turn the key to the OFF position). If you do not do this, you may receive an electric shock or short out some contacts with a screwdriver, which may cause a fire.
You can use a screwdriver to open the cover. There are two clips on the left side of the cover.
Insert a screwdriver into the gap between the cover and the clamp
- slightly bend the latch and lift the cover so that it does not snap when you release it
- do the same with the second clamp
- lift the lid up (to a vertical position), after which the lid can be removed by pulling it up and off.
In some Opel models (opel astra a), the fuse box consists of two parts.
You can remove the cover from the large mounting block of relays and fuses by pressing on both sides of the internal clips that hold the cover firmly on the case.
The cover can be removed from the mounting block of the main fuses by simply pulling it up. It houses the main fuses hardly.
Under the cover you will see a set of fuses and relays.
Each fuse is responsible for a separate device in the car and is rated for a certain amperage, so it will be useful to know the fuse ratings.

The fuse box in the dashboard may be located in different places depending on the configuration.
On left-hand drive vehicles, the fuse box is located behind the glove box on the dashboard.
To get to the block, you need to open the compartment, press the inner box to the left, and fully unlock it by lowering it down. The compartment cover can then be removed.
On right-hand drive cars, the fuse box is hidden behind a cover in the glove box.
In order to get to it, you need to open the front glove box and find a small cover there on the top left. After that, you can open it using the protruding handle - behind the cover is the fuse box itself.
