Fuses and relays Renault Espace (JK), 2002–2014

The fourth-generation Renault Espace minivan was produced from 2002 through 2014. During its production run, the vehicle underwent several facelifts. The extended-wheelbase version was sold as the Grand Espace. Below is a comprehensive guide to the locations of all electronic control modules and components in the Espace IV (chassis code JK; M2 platform). This guide covers fuse and relay boxes, complete with photos, diagrams, component assignments, and the location of the cigarette lighter fuse.

The number of fuses and relays, as well as the circuit diagrams, may vary depending on the model year and electrical equipment level of the vehicle.
