Volkswagen Eos unable to locate trunk release fuse on Volkswagen Eos

Problem overview

Some Volkswagen Eos owners report experiencing difficulties with the trunk release due to issues related to the fuse. These owners often struggle to locate the fuse box, which is typically found in the engine bay or cabin, and may not have access to the owner's manual or a fuse box diagram for their specific model year. Once they locate the fuse box, they may find it challenging to identify the correct fuse for the trunk release mechanism and inspect it properly. If a blown fuse is discovered, replacing it with a new one of the same amperage is crucial; however, some owners report that the new fuse blows again, indicating a potential underlying electrical problem that requires professional diagnosis. Additionally, issues with wiring and connectors associated with the trunk release may go unnoticed, further complicating the troubleshooting process.
