Volkswagen Golf 5 th generation was produced in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 mainly in the hatchback, with both petrol and diesel engines. In our material you will find a description of the Golf 5 fuse boxes and relays with diagrams and photographs. We will show the location of all electronic control units. The fuse responsible for the “Cigarette lighter” is highlighted in bold. This material will also be useful to the owner of Volkswagen Jetta 5 cars, since these models have a similar electrical circuit.
