Nissan Wingroad Y11 (11th generation, 1999–2005) is a popular compact van that is still used in many countries due to its reliability. However, even in such a proven car, fuses periodically blow, which leads to failure of electrical equipment: from headlights to the cigarette lighter. In this article you will find current fuse block diagrams for Wingroad Y11, their location, decoding of each element and practical tips for diagnostics and replacement.
The peculiarity of this model is the presence two main fuse blocks: one in the cabin (under the instrument panel), the other in the engine compartment. We will analyze both in detail, pointing out the “weak points” of the electrics Wingroad, which most often cause problems, and we will explain how to avoid common mistakes when replacing. If you encounter non-working power windows, a glitchy radio, or a starter failure, these instructions will help you quickly locate the problem.
Where are the fuse boxes located in Nissan Wingroad Y11
B Wingroad 11th generation fuses are distributed over two main blocks. Their location depends on the configuration and year of manufacture, but in most cases the diagrams are unified.
1. Salon block (main) is under the dashboard on the driver's side, behind a plastic cover. To access it:
- 🔧 Open the driver's door and sit in the seat.
- 🔍 Find the plastic cover under the steering wheel (usually black or gray) with the inscription
FUSE. - 🖐️ Press the latch at the top of the lid and pull it towards you.
2. Engine compartment located next to the battery, in a plastic box with a lid. It is responsible for high-amperage circuits (for example, radiator fan, ABS). Access to it is difficult due to the cramped space under the hood - we recommend using a flashlight.
⚠️ Attention: On some versions Wingroad Y11 with diesel engines CD20 The engine compartment diagram may differ. Check the markings on the inside of the lid!
The car also has additional relays, which are often confused with fuses. For example, the starter relay or ignition relay are located separately - we will analyze them in the corresponding section.
- Only in case of breakdown
- Once a year
- Every technical inspection
- Never
Diagram and explanation of the interior fuse box
The interior block is the most “loaded”: fuses for lighting, cigarette lighter, power windows and other comfort systems are concentrated here. Below is current scheme for most versions Wingroad Y11 (1999–2005).
| Fuse no. | Denomination (A) | What is he responsible for? | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
1 |
10 | Side lights (left side), license plate light | Often burns out when installing LED lamps |
7 |
15 | Cigarette lighter, 12V socket | Weak point - burns out when connecting powerful devices (for example, a compressor) |
12 |
10 | Window lifters (driver's) | If only one window does not work, check the motor, not the fuse |
18 |
15 | Audio system, radio | Burns out when there is a short circuit in the speakers |
25 |
10 | Engine control unit (ECU) | Replace only with the ignition off! |

Engine compartment fuse box: what you need to know
Engine compartment block Nissan Wingroad Y11 is responsible for high current circuits: starter, generator, cooling fans, ABS, etc. Its features:
- ⚡ The fuses here are rated from
20Ato100A(unlike salon ones, where the maximum30A). - 🔥 Radiator fan fuses blow out most often (
30A) and charging circuits (80A). - 🔧 Replacement may require a socket wrench
10 mm(for attaching the block cover).
Block location:
- Open the hood and find the battery.
- Next to it (usually on the right, if you are facing the car) there is a black plastic box with a lid.
- Remove the cover by pulling it up (force may be required).
⚠️ Attention: Never replace fuses in the engine compartment with bugs (jumper wires). This may lead to fire in the engine compartment due to high currents!
Below is a table with the most important engine compartment fuses:
| № | Denomination (A) | Purpose | Symptoms of malfunction |
|---|---|---|---|
A |
80 | Main fuse for charging circuit | The battery does not charge, the lamp is on CHARGE |
C |
30 | Radiator fan | Engine overheating, fan does not turn on |
E |
100 | Generator circuit | Loss of power, battery discharge |
If the fuse in the engine compartment blows again after replacement, check generator And wiring for a short circuit. A common cause: oxidation of the contacts on the battery terminals or damage to the wire insulation.
How to check and replace a fuse: step-by-step instructions
Replacing the fuse in Wingroad Y11 - a simple procedure, but there are nuances that will help you avoid mistakes. Follow this algorithm:
- Turn off the power.
Remove the negative terminal from the battery (especially important for the engine compartment). This will prevent short circuits when manipulating fuses.
- Find the faulty fuse.
Visually inspect the fuses: a blown one will have broken thread inside or melted body. For an accurate check, use a multimeter in dial mode.
- Remove the fuse.
In the interior block, the fuses are removed with your fingers or tweezers (usually included with the block). In the engine compartment, you may need a screwdriver to press out the latches.
- Install a new fuse.
Use fuse same denomination! Installing a fuse with a lower rating will lead to its immediate blowout, while installing a fuse with a larger rating will lead to the risk of fire.
If after replacement the fuse blows again, there is short circuit. In this case:
- 🔍 Check the wiring for damage (especially in places of kinks or 近くのホットスポット).
- 🛠️ Disconnect consumers connected to this circuit (for example, a radio or additional equipment).
- 📊 Use a multimeter to check the circuit resistance (should be close to zero with consumers disconnected).
What to do if the fuse is intact, but the circuit does not work?
If the fuse is good, but equipment (such as headlights or power windows) does not work, check:
1. **Relay** - the starter relay or ignition relay (located next to the fuse box) often fails.
2. **Wiring** - oxidation of contacts or broken wires (especially in doorways).
3. **Switches** - for example, a power window button or a headlight switch.
4. **Ground** - poor contact with the body can simulate a fuse failure.
Typical problems with fuses in Wingroad Y11 and their solutions
Nissan Wingroad Y11 has several “weak points” in the electrical system, which appear over time. Here are the most common problems and how to fix them:
1. Cigarette lighter fuse (15A) burns out when connecting a pump or charging
Reason: In the cigarette lighter socket Wingroad Contacts often oxidize, which leads to increased resistance and overheating. Also, the culprit may be low-quality additional equipment (for example, cheap compressors with a current exceeding 15A).
Solution:
- 🔌 Clean the socket contacts with alcohol or a special liquid (for example,
Contact Cleaner). - 🔋 Use a power strip with a fuse or connect powerful devices directly to the battery.
- 🔧 Replace the cigarette lighter socket with a new one (part number for Wingroad Y11:
25460-4M000).
2. The power window fuse blows (10A)
Reason: Most often to blame worn window lift motors, which begin to consume increased current. The problem may also be in the control unit or damaged wiring in the doors.
Solution:
- 🔊 Listen to the operation of the motor: if it “creaks” or works with jerks, replacement is required.
- 🔍 Check the wiring in the corrugation between the door and the body (often frays).
- 🔧 Lubricate the glass guides with silicone grease - this will reduce the load on the motor.
3. Radiator fan fuse (30A) burns out in summer
Reason: The fan turns on when the temperature is high, and if it is jammed or overloaded, the fuse will blow. It could also be due to a faulty fan relay or temperature sensor.
Solution:
- 🌡️ Check the operation of the temperature sensor (located on the radiator).
- 🔄 Replace the fan relay (located in the engine compartment, usually marked
RADIATOR FAN). - 🔧 Make sure the fan blades rotate freely (do not touch the radiator).
⚠️ Attention: If your fan fuse blows regularly, don't ignore the problem! This may lead to engine overheating and expensive repairs (for example, deformation of the cylinder head).
If a fuse burns out again after replacement, never increase its rating! This will temporarily solve the problem, but may cause the wiring to catch fire. Find and eliminate the cause of the short circuit.
Relay in Nissan Wingroad Y11: location and verification
Along with the fuses in Wingroad Y11 often fail relay, which control powerful consumers (starter, headlights, fan, etc.). Their location:
- 🔋 Main relay block — next to the interior fuse box (under the instrument panel).
- 🚗 Starter relay - usually located on the partition of the engine compartment (next to the battery).
- 💡 Headlight relay — in the engine compartment (marking
HEADLAMP).
How to check the relay:
- Remove the relay from the socket (by gently pulling up).
- Look at the contacts: if they are burnt or oxidized, the relay must be replaced.
- For an accurate check, use a multimeter:
1. Подключите щупы к выводам 85 и 86 (катушка реле).2. При подаче 12V должно раздаться щелчание (замыкание контактов 30 и 87).
3. Проверьте сопротивление между 30 и 87: в нормальном состоянии — 0 Ом, в разомкнутом — бесконечность.
The most problematic relays in Wingroad Y11:
| Relay | Symptoms of malfunction | Replacement article |
|---|---|---|
| Starter relay | The starter does not turn, clicks when turning the key | 25230-4M000 |
| Fan relay | The fan does not turn on, the engine overheats | 25230-31U00 |
| Ignition relay | Car won't start, no power to dashboard | 25230-AL500 |
When replacing a relay, pay attention to marking: Even if the relays are identical in appearance, they may differ in switching current. For example, the starter relay is designed to 30A, and the headlight relay is on 20A.
Additional fuses and fuses
In addition to the main blocks, Nissan Wingroad Y11 There is additional fuse linksthat are often overlooked. They are located:
- 🔌 Generator fuse link — next to the battery, in a black plastic case (nominal
100A). - 🔋 ABS circuit fuse — in the engine compartment (fuse
40Awith markingsABS). - 📡 Antenna fuse — in the cabin unit (fuse
10A, is responsible for the electric drive of the antenna).
Pay special attention generator fuse link. Its burnout leads to:
- Battery discharge while driving.
- Burning lamp
CHARGEon the dashboard. - Loss of power from electrical equipment (dim headlights, slow operation of power windows).
If the fuse link is burned out:
- Check generator (the voltage at the battery terminals when the engine is running should be
13.8–14.5V). - Inspect wiring from the generator to the battery for a short circuit.
- Replace the insert with a new one (value
100A!). Using a bug will cause a fire!
If after replacing the generator fuse link it burns out again, check diode bridge generator Its breakdown is the most common cause of this malfunction.
