Since 2017, the second generation of the updated Crafter has been delivered to the markets. In this article you will find a description of Crafter fuse blocks and relays, diagrams and photos of the blocks, as well as their location. Let's highlight the fuse responsible for the cigarette lighter.

Depending on your vehicle equipment level (Standard, HighLine, etc.) and the year of manufacture, different designs of fuse boxes and relays are possible.

General arrangement

The following blocks are provided in Crafter:

• Power supply fuse, cl. 30 -S190-
• Battery fuse holder A -SA-
• Fuse holder B, left pillar -SB-
• Left-hand fuse and relay box C -SC-
• Fuse and relay holder under driver's seat -SD-
• Additional fuses under the driver's seat
