In this article, we consider the fifth generation BMW 5-Series (E60/E61), produced from 2003 to 2010. Here you will find fuse box diagrams of BMW 5-Series 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 (520i, 520d, 523i, 525i, 525d, 528i, 530i, 530d, 535i, 535d, 540i, 545i, 550i), get information about the location of the fuse panels inside the car, and learn about the assignment of each fuse (fuse layout) and relay.
