Fuses and relays BMW X6 (E71/E72, 2008 - 2014)

The X6 is a mid-size crossover produced by the German company BMW. It combines both the characteristics of an SUV (four-wheel drive, large wheels, powerful engine) and the characteristics of a coupe (sloping roof at the rear). In this material, we will analyze in detail the fuse diagrams of the 1st generation BMW X6 (e71 / e72): 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 of release.

Here you will find the locations and photos of the mounting blocks. Separately, we note the fuses responsible for the cigarette lighter and fuel pump.

In the engine compartment

The mounting block is located on the right side of the engine compartment. Its execution depends on the installed engine.
