Interior Lighting Issues

[nencmeister]

Hello all,

Been doing some research on this topic came to no conclusion, any feed back would be appreciated.

I have a '13 with the exec package and B&O speakers, which I didn't even know illuminated! (There are no lights turned on the speakers what so ever) So I did some digging around, turns out my instrument cluster dimmer knob thing doesn't do anything if I roll it up or down.

Also my ambient door LEDs are completely off. They are not just dim, completely off. Something is def up, just curious if there is a simple fix before I need to bribe someone at the dealership and sacrifice a virgin to them for an appt

Thank goodness. When I got the car the cigarette lighter wouldn't turn on but the outer ring did. Had to replace that fuse for my uniden r3, must have messed around in there and not noticed, or just being unlucky. Found the fix on a general bmw forum; I utterly hate going to the dealership. They are always slammed where I live, there's only one..

Yup, 20amp, got it at autozone for a buck. It's in the glove box just as the video shows
