Knowing the fuse assignments is essential for troubleshooting electrical issues, replacing blown fuses, or upgrading components. This list applies to late-model 944s, specifically from 1985.5 onward, and has been tailored for the 16v engine variants. Pink and blue text represents links to additional resources, tools, parts, and partner websites. Tools Required Fuse puller or small pliers (e.g., needle-nose pliers) Multimeter (optional, for testing circuits) Replacement fuses (various amperages: 7.5A, 15A, 25A, 30A) 10mm (3/8 inch) wrench (to access the fuse panel if needed) Parts Required Replacement fuses – 944 612 211 00 (for a standard fuse kit compatible with the 944) Step-by-Step Procedure Step 1: Locate the Central Electric Panel Open the hood of your Porsche 944. Find the central electric panel on the driver’s side, near the firewall, covered by a plastic lid. Remove the lid by gently pulling it upward—it may require a slight tug if it’s snug. Step 2: Identify and Inspect Fuses Use the fuse list below to locate the fuse for the component you’re troubleshooting or replacing. Check the fuse by looking for a broken wire inside or use a multimeter to test continuity. If a fuse is blown, note its ampere rating from the list before replacing it. Step 3: Replace a Blown Fuse Use a fuse puller or small pliers to gently remove the blown fuse from its slot. Insert a new fuse of the same ampere rating into the slot, ensuring it seats firmly. Repeat for any additional blown fuses as needed. Step 4: Reference the Fuse List Refer to this table for the fuse assignments specific to the Porsche 944 (16v engine): Fuse Number Equipment Amperes 1 Lifting Roof, Rear Hatch Latching Mechanism Motor 25 2 Concealed Headlight (Motor) 25 3 Two-Tone Horns 15 4 Power Windows 30 5 Front Fog Lamp 15 6 Power Seats 30 8 Central Locking System 15 9 Additional High Beam 15 10 Coolant Fan 2 25 11 Cigar Lighter, Interior Lights 15 13 Rear Window Defogger 30 14 Fresh Air Blower 30 15 Coolant Fan 1 25 16 Conceal Headlight Motor (Relay Activation) 7.5 17 Heating Control 7.5 18 Instruments 7.5 19 Brake Lights 15 20 High Beam, Left 7.5 21 High Beam, Right 7.5 22 Low Beam, Left 7.5 23 Low Beam, Right 7.5 24 Windshield Wiper Motor 30 25 Seat Heating 25 28 Backup Light 25 30 Turn Signal, Rear-Left 7.5 31 Turn Signal, Front-Left 7.5 32 Turn Signal, Front-Right 7.5 33 Turn Signal, Rear-Right 7.5 34 Fuel Pump, Oxygen Sensor 15 36 Radio, Clock 7.5 37 Concealed Headlight 7.5 38 Instrument Lights 7.5 39 Radio 15 40 Side Marker Lights, Left 7.5 41 Side Marker Lights, Right 7.5 Post Procedure Checklist Turn on the ignition and test the affected component (e.g., power windows, headlights) to ensure it works.
