Hi all

 

Simple question for you all to start with;

How do you remove and replace the cigarette lighter in 2009 XR6 ute?  I can find no instructions on how to pull the the console out to get to the back of the lighter.  I have seen comments about "how easy it is" but no actual instructions 😞

 

Second question, not so simple;

I have an issue, electrical in nature.  If I have my foot on the brake when the car starts I hear audible alarms (beeping) and get errors messages in the dash saying "headlight fault" and the some lights and symbols flash in the dash and the screen on the ICC also flashes.  I replaced the brake switch (this was suggested as a possible fix, it didn't work :() any suggestions before I take to auto electrician and spend hundreds of $$$ for him to say "oh this $3 switch was rooted"

Lift up the lid on the center console and pull from the back there, the whole piece will slowly unclip with a bit of force then just pull the tissue holder out under the icc, its only held on by a couple of clips

I remember seeingg this video once. Is a sedan but should give you the idea.

We were all born not knowing which end to hold the screwdriver and had to start somewhere.

But whinging about not getting an answer is not going to get you any friends. If you hang around here long enough you'll find there's plenty of people wanting to help if you are willing to give and take.
