Replace the cigarette lighter fuses located in the dedicated box on a Ford Fiesta. Open the door and enter the vehicle, remove the trim in the glove compartment under the steering wheel using a plastic lever, then remove the drawer.

Use pliers to pull out the damaged fuses from the compartment. Once this is done, insert the new fuses into the appropriate slots in the compartment.

Finally, close the fuse inspection box with the cover and reassemble the drawer. Test the correct operation of the vehicle by turning on the ignition with the key.
