How to install a courtesy light that projects the logo on the door of our BMW 1 Series

Model: BMW Serie 1 MK 2, F20, F21 - Years 2011-2019
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video, we see how to replace the courtesy lights, which are located under the doors of the BMW 1 Series, with lights that project the BMW logo. Under the door, we find the small courtesy light that we intend to replace. We can find the kit for all four doors, for example on Amazon with the code B0CBK6NPJN at a price of 21.99 euros, with free delivery for Prime customers. The light we intend to remove is simply inserted, so it will be enough to insert a small flathead screwdriver, from the outside of the door, into the small slot that we can find on the outside and the light will come off easily. Disconnect the electrical connector and take the new light: insert the accompanying cable and then connect it to the connector. Insert the light in its place, making sure to tuck away any extra cables. Repeat on all four doors and enjoy the result.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
