We suggest that you familiarize yourself with the diagrams of the fuses and relays of the BMW E36. The E36 is the third generation of the BMW 3 Series. This car was produced in 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, and even until 2000, compact models with an E36 hatchback body were produced.

In the diesel version, the fuses are located in two boxes, one of which is installed in the engine compartment, like the petrol version, and the second under the rear seat. The larger 80 amp fuse is located next to the battery under the rear seat and protects the entire power circuit from the battery.
