Fuse box diagram for 1972


Recommended Posts

I have searched the forum a number of ways, and found a fuse box diagram for a 1971...and a second diagram for a 1973. They are both 12 fuse (as is the 1972) but each position has a different function.

Does anyone have a diagram for a '72...or know if it matches one of the diagrams I've already found?

My owners manual does not have a diagram.

Thanks,

Try this one not sure exactly what you are looking for. The first diagram went up to 1972 year an was called a 1971 mdl. So this one should work for you depending on your cars birthday.

This is exactly what I need...and although in a different format, fortunately matches what 02hobiedave provided a few minutes later.

My car is set up same as these diagrams, but PO replaced 5A fuses with 8A...do you think that will create any problems for me?

BTW...I replaced a very worn out looking turn signal fuse, and the indicator on my dash is now working for that signal...and it wasn't previously.

Thanks to all...

11 also has the seat belt warning light and the little switches in the seat belts and seats that cause the light to illuminate.

I kept blowing that fuse on my 73 until I discovered a wire at the fuse box that wasn't in the diagram. It was for the warning light. It was shorting out in the seat frame and causing the problem.

My fasten seat belt light is not working...and I haven't given it much thought. Almost everything else electrical is fine. I'll take a look at 11 tomorrow to see if anything looks wrong.

I hate to bump a really old thread such as this but it has important information I would like to reference. Does it matter if you swap locations of the same colored wire? i.e. #1 and #2, #3 and #4, #9 and #10 etc. This would be for a 1972 2002 so I would be using the fusebox diagram posted by 02hobiedave.

 

The PO claimed the fusebox to be bad so he purchased a new one (the wrong one, for a later model 2002) so I bought a new one and went about switching everything over except I pulled all of the wires out at once so I could clean them. I did take my time and made sure I put the correct color to one of the listed spots in the diagram. Headlights or taillights didn't work. I don't have either of the turn signal switches or high/low beam switch yet. That is on its way. Appreciate any feedback you can provide!

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

    History of the BMW 2002 and the 02 Series

    In 1966, BMW was practically unknown in the US unless you were a touring motorcycle enthusiast or had seen an Isetta given away on a quiz show.  BMW’s sales in the US that year were just 1253 cars.  Then BMW 1600-2 came to America’s shores, tripling US sales to 4564 the following year, boosted by favorable articles in the Buff Books. Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
