How to replace fuses in the BMW i8

patsgarageonline · 10-25-2019, 11:39 AM

Recently, a BMW i8 owner asked me how to identify and replace the fuse which protects the cigarette lighter sockets / power ports. I decided to put a video together to outline the steps required to get to the fuse block and replace the fuse. After doing this project, I learned it's important to have a T-20 Torx bit on hand in order to start the process. I'll be picking up a small tool kit and extra mini and standard automotive fuses for my i8. Helpful links are in the description of my video.
