    Electrical Problem

    I was replacing my heater panel and everything was working properly yesterday however today was a different story. The heater controls work but the window's, instrument panel lights (the check lights work), cigarette ligther, and the heater panel lights no longer work.

    Is there a fuse that goes with all these controls? Thanks.

        Pull and check each fuse with an ohmmeter and replace any that show an open circuit. Then figure out what you did that might cause a fuse to blow. And if you don't find a blown fuse, re-check all connections.
        The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

          Well, you can usually tell just by looking if the fuse is blown.

          Google "BMW e30 fusebox diagram." its out there somewhere; I've used it multiple times before I got my bently.

            I checked the fuse and looks ok but will change it anyways. In most cases what would be the cause of this? Any ideas greatly appreciated
