Let’s see how to replace the fuses in a Mini Cooper, such as the cigarette lighter fuse if it’s not working. Use a plastic lever to remove the cover located in the dedicated compartment (next to the pedals).

Once the compartment is open, use needle-nose pliers to pull out the damaged fuses. After this operation, insert the new fuses into the appropriate slots in the compartment.

Finally, test the correct functioning of the car by turning on the ignition with the appropriate key. Close the fuse inspection box with the cover.
