In this guide we will see how to disassemble and replace the cigarette lighter socket of the Fiat Panda. First of all, we get into the car and start levering the cigarette lighter socket; then we disconnect the electrical connector that we find underneath, thus removing the cigarette lighter and the socket, as shown in the video.

At this point, we install the new 12V socket, removing the cigarette lighter from the plastic cover and adapting the new one; we make the electrical connection and reassemble everything on the central tunnel, checking the operation of the new socket (in this case USB).
