Help where are your e85 interior lights

Post by 03z4 » Wed Sep 20, 2017 7:30 pm

I have a 2003 z4 2.5 and I don't have a single interior light when I open my doors...at first I didn't think much of it but this being my daily driver it has become quite annoying...I want to check my bulbs and then the fuses but I don't even know where the interior lights are located on the z4 vert so any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have them in the foot wells and by the interior mirror, the car interior is plenty bright enough when I open the doors.

I'm not sure about an E85 as mine is a Coupe, but the fusebox details someone posted on here suggest interior and luggage compartment lights are on fuses 10, 12 and 26.

Hope it is just a fuse. :thumbsup:

Thanks all...I'm almost positive now that it's a fuse because I don't have a single interior light beside dash lights...what are the chances all would be blown

Yeah has to be a fuse if you've got nothing.

I have mirror, footwell, glove box, rear compartment and door handle... It gets pretty damn bright!
