In this video, see how to fix the cigarette lighter not working on the BMW X3 F25: the YouTuber removed the glove compartment, where the F20 fuse is located. This fuse is responsible for the operation of the cigarette lighter and is also a power outlet.

It is a yellow 20 Amp fuse that was replaced (its location is shown in the video), and during the functionality test, the cigarette lighter works perfectly. It is recommended to keep at least a couple of fuses for each amperage in the car so that you can easily replace them if needed, referring to the owner's manual.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
