now I've got another problem. I replaced the cigarette lighter fuse and now it works fine, but I noticed that there was another fuse missing for the cruise control. So I went out and bought 5 amp fuses for that. To my surprise, when I got home to install them, the fuse in port 11 was very loose. It turns out that the metal pieces that hold the fuse in place are missing (not on the fuse, but in the fusebox itself). So I don't know what to do about that, do I need a whole new box or is there some way I can just replace the metal pieces? Thanks

 

its normal...

 

So what could I do about that? Do I need an entirely new box or can I just replace those metal pieces that are missing? If you take any fuse out of your fuse box, you'll see two metal pieces on both sides of the slot. Problem is, those are missing, it has nothing to do with the fuse itself.

 

What is #11 for? You might not have that option, thus no connection at the fuse.

 

Its for cruise control, but I do have that option

 

There might be a diffferent fuse for the cruise control on your car. If the tabs are not there and not even in the back of the fuse box that fuse spot was not used by Audi when they built your car.
