Mercedes CL & S-Class 1999 – 2006 Fuse Box Location and Diagrams Guide
This blog shows Mercedes-Benz CL & S-Class fuse box locations and diagrams 1999 – 2006. It helps repair and maintain electrical systems by quickly finding and understanding fuses. Get into the details.
Fuses
- Fuses are designed to protect the electri-cal circuits in your vehicle from a short cir-cuit. If a fuse is blown, the component(s) and systems controlled by that fuse will stop working.
The following aids are available to help you replace fuses

- Fuse chart
- Spare fuses
- Special fuse extractor
Warning
Only use fuses approved by Mercedes-Benz and which have the specified amperage. Using other fuses may cause an overload and lead to a fire, or cause damage to elec-trical components and/or systems.
Never attempt to repair or bridge a blown fuse. Have the cause determined and remedied by an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
Your vehicle’s electrical fuses are located in various fuse boxes:
- In the dashboard on the passenger side
- In the rear passenger compartment un-der the right rear seat.
In the engine compartment on the driv-er’s side. - In the engine compartment on the pas-senger side
