BMW fuse blown problem

    Hoping someone on here can help me.

    The cigarette lighter has stopped working, and I can no longer charge my phone in the car.

    I've had a look in the fuse box and the info sheet doesn't list the lighter on it.

    Anyone know which one it is ??

    Sorry, it's a 316i 2007

    Thanks

    RX 8

    Fuse box is located in the glove compartment, x2 catches and it drops down. There should be a fuse legend in there too. 12V Adaptor / 12V Cigarette Adaptor should be listed.

    Maybe you should just test them all if you don't have an fuse legend sheet. They are usually a 15 or 20 amp fuse.

    Thanks, but I have been looking at the legend, and there doesn't seem to be an icon for the lighter.Taking them out is a nightmare too, so don't really want to try and test them all.

    Hope someone can shed some light on it, as I need to be able to charge the phone in the car.
