#8 Fuse keeps burning out

gasman mike · 06-23-2009, 06:32 PM

Anyone had any problems with fuses burning out in their E90 M3? My #8 fuse which is the cigarette lighter and electrical outlet in armrest compartment burned out yesterday after working fine for 13000 miles (I LOVE TO DRIVE THIS CAR!!!!).
Now today it burns out as soon as I put a new one in. This happens regardless of whether the radar detector is plugged in, the cigarette lighter, or even nothing at all.

PS Many many thanks to the posts about DIY oil/air filter changes.
