    T6 Fuse panel layout - Engine and Cabin

    Hi there.
    Does anyone have a fuse panel layout for a T6 for the engine compartment and the cabin.
    I read my manual that VW did not publish a layout when the vehicle was delivered because it was still under development.
    It is pretty disappointing because there will come a day when a fuse will blow, I will have my family in the car and be in the middle of nowhere and all it would have taken to get back on the road is a simple fuse replacement. But you need a fuse panel layout to show you where the fuse is located like every car in the history of automobiles!
    Anything would help please, mine is an Australian delivered Transporter TD400 4motion, but any layout will do, they couldn't be that different.
    Thanks

    I noticed the same thing in my T6 manual, if i recall by memory, there is a quote in the manual that you can ask your service dealer for a print out as every T6 is different.

    whether they really will do this is another matter, as they seem to struggle with most tasks.

    ill be trying to get a wiring diagram from them i the near future

    Isn,t that the biggest load of Bull s****T you have ever read , under development has been a standard line for yonks . Got the same story with our new T5 in 2012 apparently it seems that VW cannot finish what they started to develop many years before the vans are sold . VW,s engineers would be working on any new model for three or four years in advance of release so it,s a crock that after all that time they haven,t finalised the placement . It's just another way for them to get you into the dealers to lighten your wallet . They trot out the line that they don't wont average joe driver to replace a fuse in case he uses the wrong one .If you do get a print out paste it into a post for future reference for other owners please .

    You might try this link, paste into 'Google Translate', for English version, it is the German T5 Wiki, gives a fairly good description of T5 and T5.1 fuses locations, should be a start to what's on a T6.

    Yes it would be interesting to see the location of the fuse box and its layout to compare to a T5.1 at least .

    Have a look at "T5 Essentials" Thread

    I forgot to mention, a reminder of 'Transporter' s T5 Essentials Thread, he has given a fairly comprehensive description of the fuses in the earlier models which might help.

    Thanks all for your help. Yes I agree, its a load of bull that they can release a vehicle without a proper manual. They tell you how to drive it, which you certainly don't need but not how to do a simple fix if a fuse blows and you are stranded. I did ask my local VW dealer and they have agreed reluctantly to give me a copy of the fuse panel layout. I'll let y'all know if this eventuates.

    Reluctantly was that what they said , that is just unbelievable for people who pay good money for a vehicle to be treated .
