Location

RHD (UK cars): driver's footwell, under the lower dash to the right of the steering column, directly above the accelerator pedal — about level with the driver's right knee, towards the outboard side nearest the door. The 16-pin connector sits exposed in a black plastic bracket facing rearward and slightly down, with nothing to remove. You will not see it from the seat; crouch in the door aperture and look up. LHD: the same bracket mirrored to the left of the column, above the outermost pedal — the clutch on a manual — under the small lower-dash storage bin. Same position on saloon, hatchback and station wagon and on every trim from S to LTZ. Two things worth knowing. Do not use the interior fuse box as a landmark on a European or Australian car: unlike the American Cruze it lives behind the glovebox, not at the driver's end of the dash. And these connectors are known to pop out of the retaining bracket and get pushed up behind the lower dash trim — if you cannot see it, feel further back and upward before you decide it has been removed. If a tool will not power up on the socket, check instrument-panel fuse 14 (7.5 A), which feeds it.
