The BMW E36 is the third generation of the German automaker's 3-series passenger cars, produced from 1990 to 2000. This generation received an elegant streamlined body and was initially presented as a four-door, in contrast to the mainly two-door second generation. In this article we will understand in detail fuse box diagrams BMW e363 series (3rd Gen) 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1993, 1994, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000 model years.
Here you will find the locations and photos of the mounting blocks. Also, we will separately mark the fuses responsible for the cigarette lighter and the fuel pump.
