Qashqai 1.2 Digi-T 2016 model fuses

Hi all,
If I could ask for your assistance please!?

I’m currently fitting the stop start model that I received from Daniel, and I’m at the point of fitting the fuse behind the panel on the right of the dash.
( battery always disconnected during this) The recommended point is the “meter IG” fuse, but when this is pulled I lose all instrumentation.
So, I’m assuming the labelling on the fuse cover is incorrect. I’ve attached a pic of my fuses ( suggested one circled) and the cover that shows the fuse allocations.

So..... I’m not sure where to fit the start stop module. I note it came with a 2 fuse in it. The suggested fuse is a 10..... can’t be that can it? Didn’t want to risk changing the fuse and frying the module.

I don't know of the module you're fitting ,but isn't it logical that the DCDC_METER_IG fuse controls the instruments? Meters - ignition switched?

Are you piggybacking the fuses?

This is the fuse box on the driver side, behind the small panel that would be hidden by the door.

The module comes fitted with a short piggy back wire that will only reach to that fuse box. It is the correct fuse box but I can’t tell which fuse slot to put it into. I followed the instructions as per but they are for a different model it seems.

Ok..... I’m going to confess something. It’s just occurred to me that I should take the removed 10a fuse and push it into the empty slot on the pigggback holder. I haven’t used These before. It’s all working now!


Believe it or not I actually work with pretty sophisticated Subsea robots, lots of electronics and hydraulics...🥴 but never seen these before!

They're probably still using Windows XP!
