cigarette lighter/12v socket - fuse
Strange thing happened after routine maintenance at BMW.
Both the center console, and passenger side under glovebox cigarette lighter appear to have stopped working. I'm assuming that it's the fuse. Is it the same circuit for both sockets? Odd thing is that for the center console socket, the light around it is still working. I figured that would be the indicator that the circuit is still good. Is that light actually on a different circuit? Oh, and if it's a single fuse...anyone know which fuse? Maybe #65? |

Thanks for the info.
I'm assuming/hoping it's a fuse. I'm just surprised that the light around the center console socket stays on if the fuse is shot. I'll try and get under there and change it out tomorrow. I remember last time getting down there, it wasn't as bad as I was expecting. |

I think I fixed the problem today. Fuses were OK, it was a slightly dislodged fuse tap I believe that was causing the problem. Let's see if I really did fix it or not.
One concern I noticed though. The fuse schematic found online doesn't match up well to my fuses. None of the assigned fuse values are correct, which makes me wonder if the schematic of various functions is even accurate. Of course, I can't find the schematic that came with my car. I'll do a deeper search this week to try and find that, and compare with the online resources. |
