In today's video, see how to replace the cigarette lighter bulb in the second series Fiat Panda. First, obtain a pointed object, such as a flat-head screwdriver.

Use it to lever between the cigarette lighter and the centre console until you can detach the unit. Once done, locate the blown bulb that needs replacing; specifically, it is a standard 3 W bulb, available at major auto parts stores.

You can then insert the new unit and reassemble everything as it was before.
