    On my 2016, my 20 amp #54 was blown. Helped watching this! But armrest still didn't work after checking the 15 amp. I needed to replace the 20amp in slot 147 in the trunk for the center console. Hope this helps anyone who still has trouble!

    Just so everyone knows, the front and rear cigarette ones use ATC 20 (yellow) while the center console uses ATM 15 (blue)

    On the right hand driver version, the fuse box is still in glovebox but it’s upside down, the fuse is the second one down on the right side of the fuse box. I had to remove the plastic panel under the glovebox, t20 screw, there’s 2 of them, the panel comes down, put your hand up looking through the hole under the glovebox, use the hole in the glovebox as a viewing window. Hope that makes sense

    Same, this worked on my 2013 F11.
    Also, the complete fuse chart is in the boot (trunk); on the right hand side (on my RHD car at least) there's the rear fusebox, and in there you'll find the red tool for removing the fuses, as well as the fuse chart neatly folded & inserted at the base of the fusebox.
    Lastly, the front fuse box is effectively upside down on RHD cars!

      @MikeMDs  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      They can go bad. I usually see issues after tint was installed or a new rear window. They cut the antenna circuit with a razor. If everything looks good and it is only on radio that is staticy. I say try to replace and see what happens. Maybe you can order a used one on ebay once you match the numbers off of it.
