In this tutorial we can see how to replace the cabin fan in the BMW 1 Series F20. First of all, make sure that the key is not inserted, then go under the dashboard, on the passenger side, and unscrew the two bolts indicated with a 10mm socket wrench. Once the panel has been removed, identify the fan in question, disconnect the power connector with the help of a flat-tipped screwdriver and unscrew the three fixing screws, using a Torx T20 key. Once this is done we can take the fan out of the housing and fit the replacement.
