FUSE BOX help 2011 328i

Hello,

I was checking my fuses for a blown one and May have put one in the wrong place I may also be missing one and now my car won’t start. Does anyone have a picture of what the fuse slots are supposed to be filled on a 2011 328i??

if you will look precise thru empty fuse slots with good light, you will see where are not populated pins from other side, and where not
and you can try to populate with fuses them

Fuse slots come from the factory not filled for the options that are not installed.
Also the fuse board can be different from year to year.
There should be a Fuse Chart stored behind the Rear Glove box cover which you take
off with two quarter turn fasteners to access the fuses.
If you check the fuses one by one there is less chance of replacing them in the wrong spot
and you should identify the function before removing them .
Taking a picture with your cell phone would be good way not to mess things up.

Hello thank you I found the fuse abd fuse box and was checking them one by one and am 98% sure I put them back in the right spot (did this before I posted so I didn’t not take a pic sadly) and now the car won’t start. I also have the little diagram but it shows so many more fuses than I had when I first looked in there. Car was running fine before I opened it up to check them. I have been unable to find a picture of someone else’s car to try abd match up the layout

See if you can locate the little fuse diagram paper. It's usually inserted on the back of the fuse panel cover when you remove it from the glove box.
It might have fallen inside the fuse box.

Here is my 2011 328i https://photos.app.goo.gl/Ey57NNDWLoiNzB6j7
Again, this could be different from your car, but it might help you.

Did you look at the link I sent in the last post it has diagrams and lists the function of the three separate cabin fuse revisions.

You can't compare your fuse box to other cars they will different by years . Pleas open that link it has all three revisions.

Also have you checked the battery voltage?
