Could be. Dirty dusty could cause heat build up. Replace fuse and clean fuse contacts with spray electrical cleaner. If fuse blows again, figure out what runs off that circuit and test further for bad connections at bulbs, spade connectors, etc.

you should be able to go under the dash on the passengers side to get to it. if you look where the heater hoses go in the engine compartment it will tell you how far up you have to go inside.

SOURCE: my cigarrete lighter doesnt work,

all you need to do is buy a cheep test light in the 5-10 range. ground the test light and touch the metal in the fuse you do not need to take the fuse out. check both sides of the fuse you will see 2 metal pices on the back of the fuse were it tells you how many amps the fuse is. that is what you touch with the test light. the light should light up if not the fuses are bad. if the fuse is good take the test light and ground it again you can clip it to the side of the cig lighter socket. and put the test light prob into the cig lighter socket becarefull not to touch the sides of the socket and just touch dead center bottom and if the test light does not light up you know your Cig socket has burnt out

i don't think so, you'll probably just have to replace it if the dirt is on the inside

Use the covers in the fuse boxes and replace the dome light fuse, there is a rule all the components inside the car are powered by the fuses inside the car. All the systems in the engine are powered by the engine fuse box.

Checking fuses for a 2000 vw beetle turbo

Thanks for responding. Frustrated at spending over an hour on the damn internet looking for a simple diagram of what each fuse covered , driving to a parts store, buying a Chiltons repair manual, changing a few fuses that didn't need changing ( ac still blew hot ) I took it back to the repair shop this am and will let them deal with it.
I think I am going to create a diagram and give it away for FREE so idiots like me can change the fuses and get on with more important things in life.
