The Audi A5 is a luxury coupe introduced in 2007 and produced until 2012. It is renowned for its sleek and sporty design, advanced technology, and impressive performance. The A5 comes in both a coupe and convertible body style, and is available with a range of engines including a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder, a supercharged 3.0-liter V6, and a powerful 4.2-liter V8. The car’s precise handling, strong acceleration, and luxurious interior make it a popular choice among car enthusiasts.
One of the most important components of any vehicle is the electrical system, and the Audi A5 is no exception. The car is equipped with a complex network of electrical components including the fuse box and relays, which are responsible for ensuring that all of the car’s electronic systems function correctly. In this article, we will take a closer look at the fuse box and relay diagrams of the Audi A5, and explore how these important components work to keep the car’s electrical system running smoothly.
Fuse Box and Relay Diagrams of the Audi A5 2007-2012
The Audi A5 is equipped with two fuse boxes located in different areas of the vehicle. The first fuse box is located in the engine compartment on the driver’s side, and is responsible for controlling the car’s main electrical systems. The second fuse box is located in the passenger compartment on the driver’s side, and is responsible for controlling the car’s secondary electrical systems.
Each fuse box contains a diagram that indicates the location of each fuse and relay, and the function of each component. The diagrams are typically printed on the underside of the fuse box covers, making them easy to access and reference when necessary. In addition to the fuse boxes, the Audi A5 is also equipped with a number of relays that help to control various electrical systems including the air conditioning, fuel pump, and horn. These relays are located throughout the vehicle and are also indicated on the fuse box diagrams. Understanding the location and function of these components is essential for maintaining and troubleshooting the electrical system of the Audi A5.

WARNING
- Never replace a fuse with one that has a higher amperage rating.
- A fuse with a too-high amperage could damage the electrical part and cause a fire.
- On no account should fuses be repaired (e.g. patched up with tin foil or wire) as this may cause serious damage elsewhere in the electrical circuit or cause a fire.
- If a fuse blows repeatedly, do not keep replacing it. Instead, have the cause for the repeated short circuit or overload tracked and fixed.
