You have to know that VW Passat B6 (2005-2010) has two fuse boxes:
– first one is located on the left side of the dash panel behind the plastic cover
– the second one is located in the engine compartment on the left side of the car
You have to replace the defect fuse with a new fuse of the same ampere number! You should never repair fuses and do not replace them with a fuse of a higher amperage, it may cause fire.
I recommend always carrying replacement fuses in your vehicle because you never know when you need it.
