How to solve the problem of the cigarette lighter not working on a BMW X3 F25

Model: BMW X3 MK 2, F25 - Years 2010-2017
Part: Cigarette lighter

In this video, we can see how to solve the problem of the cigarette lighter not working on the BMW X3 F25: the YouTuber has disassembled the glove compartment, where the F20 fuse is located, which is responsible for the operation of the cigarette lighter and also serves as a power outlet. It is a yellow 20 Amp fuse that has been replaced (we can see its location in the video) and upon testing, the cigarette lighter works perfectly. It is recommended to always keep at least a couple of fuses for each amperage in the car so that they can be easily replaced if needed, referring to the owner's manual.
