In this case, we have a Fiat Panda 169 as an example, but changing the cigarette lighter bulb is a similar procedure in all cars. So, whatever vehicle you have, follow the tutorial.

Turn on the ignition, open the cigarette lighter cap, and if the bulb does not work, take a flat-head screwdriver and lever it out from the frame of the cigarette lighter. This will allow you to disconnect the connector and replace the bulb by simply unscrewing the old one and screwing in the new one you purchased.

Reconnect the connector and check its operation.

Once all tyres have been inflated to the recommended pressure, turn on the ignition to check that the light has disappeared: if it is still present, it may be necessary to drive for a few miles, allowing the sensors to work and thus turning off the light.
