Fiat Panda - Video tutorial

Model: Fiat Panda MK 2, 169 - Years 2003-2012
Part: Cigarette Lighter
Operation: How to perform the direct connection of the cigarette lighter to the battery on Fiat Panda 169

The guide shows how to make a direct electrical connection between the cigarette lighter and the battery of the Fiat Panda 169; this type of modification allows the use of the cigarette lighter even without the key inserted. As a first operation it is necessary to remove the battery from its seat and from the connectors to work in safety; then you have to identify the cables that reach the cigarette lighter and consider only the two-color one. From the engine compartment, with the fuse box open, it is necessary to locate fuse F44. Once the front plate of the fuse box has been lifted, you will find the electrical cables relating to the piece to be repaired. To complete the operation it will be necessary to make an electrical bridge between the fuse itself and the positive pole of the battery that reaches the fuse box. The second cable from the fuse in question goes to the starter cylinder and it is this that must be severed and connected to the battery cable. At this point the operation can be said to be completed.
