Hyundai H1 Fuses
Fuses for the Hyundai H1 — new, used and aftermarket stock, quoted once we know which H1 you are running
What Are Hyundai H1 Fuses?
Hyundai fuses are small blade-style protectors that sit in the dashboard fuse box and one or two engine-bay boxes. We see them blow most often on i20 and Accent ignition circuits, usually flagging a wiring short or a tired consumer rather than a random failure.

H1 Fuses: what actually decides fitment
What changes across the range
Sold here across the original Starex, then the TQ iLoad, iMax and Grand Starex, the H1 is not one car for parts purposes — it is several.
Panel van, bus and people-mover bodies on the same TQ base take different rear-end, glass and trim parts, so tell us the body style, not just the model.
Worth knowing: the H1no Kia equivalent — the H1 is its own commercial platform.
What we check on fuses
- •The generation code, because H1 parts lists split on it
- •The engine family — this H1 was sold with 2.4 petrol on selected Grand Starex derivatives, D4CB 2.5 CRDi and 2.5 TD on the earlier Starex
- •The VIN, and the fault code if the car has been scanned
- •Whether the car is pre- or post-facelift within its generation
In South Africa the H1 is mostly shuttle, tour and staff-transport work, which means very high annual mileage and a strong bias towards diesel injection, turbo and clutch components. That is the wear pattern we stock and source against.
Hyundai H1 Fuses FAQs
Will fuses from another H1 fit mine?
Not automatically. The H1 sold in South Africa as the original Starex, then the TQ iLoad, iMax and Grand Starex, and panel van, bus and people-mover bodies on the same TQ base take different rear-end, glass and trim parts, so tell us the body style, not just the model. Send us the generation code off your VIN plate and we will confirm it either way before anything is dispatched.
What should I send you when asking about H1 fuses?
The VIN is the single most useful thing — a photo of the plate is fine. Failing that, the generation code and the engine code off the block. The H1 ran as the original Starex, then the TQ iLoad, iMax and Grand Starex, so the generation is what narrows the search.
How much does it cost to replace a car fuse in a Hyundai?
A single blade fuse costs R50-R100 at any SA accessory shop. A full replacement fuse box, like the Hyundai Accent unit, runs around R727 through our supplier network. Labour is 15 minutes at most indies.
What are the symptoms of a blown fuse in a Hyundai?
One electrical circuit stops working while everything else stays live. Typical flags are dead cigarette lighter, lost radio memory, or indicators that refuse to click. The fuse itself shows a snapped metal strip when you pull it.
Why does my Hyundai fuse keep blowing?
A repeat-blowing fuse means a short or an overloaded circuit, not a bad fuse. Common culprits on i20 and Accent are chafed wiring near door hinges, water in the boot loom, or a shorted blower motor. Get it traced before fitting a bigger fuse.
How do I check if a fuse is blown in my Hyundai?
Pull the suspect fuse with the plastic puller in the lid. Hold it to the light: if the metal strip inside is broken or blackened, it is blown. A cheap circuit tester confirms it without guessing.
Where can I buy a Hyundai fuse box in South Africa?
Used fuse boxes for most Hyundai models come through Pro Hyundai Spares and our supplier network. Match the part number on the lid to your VIN-decoded spec, since i20, Accent units are not interchangeable.
