Video tutorial

The first fuse box on the BMW 3 Series is located on the front pillar on the passenger side, specifically under the glove compartment: as shown in the table in the video, this box contains some of the most important fuses, such as the fuse for the headlight LEDs and the one that controls the door lock while driving.

To access the second fuse box, open the hood: the desired compartment is on the left (when facing the cabin) near the windshield.

The third and final fuse box is located in the trunk, on the right side of the vehicle, in the same compartment as the battery.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
