Default Need some Help!! Blown fuse

Hey Guys and Gals,

I switched my interior's to LED a while back, but recently got the glovebox LED, it was missing in the original order...

Anyways, stupid me and as I was swapping it, blew the fuse. I have a 2013 Q5, and looking through the manual and see no reference to internal lights, but I have confirmed my maps, domes and glove box light no longer work.

Could someone please guide me as to which fuse I would need to replace?

Thank you kindly!

Was able to figure out which fuse it was, the manual didn't label it as clear as I would like.

All good here, and everything working as normal.

Thanks

Hey Gqinxs,

I ordered my LEDs from KRAUTOPARTS. Decent price, Emil is a good guy there.

I've taken some quick pics with my iPhone, sorry the pic quality isn't the greatest...but they were both taken without the flash on to give you the look of the lights...

With regards to the fuse, if you do blow the internal lights (dome, map, and glove box), you will need to access the driver side fuse box, access the red fuse panel and replace #7 vehicle electrical system control module 1 - its a 20 amp.

I do love the look of the LED interior. Next will be to make the Fog light switch to either Hoen or HID...Still deciding...

I've been really happy with my Hoens.

I put those in my Q5 and the build quality is great and the price is about half of the others but I have to say the ECS ones I put in my RS4 are brighter and I like that more.

Good to know, thanks Reggie. I am satisfied with the brightness of the LEDs I put in definitely given the price point, but good to know that ECS does offer brighter ones should I decide to do another swap.
