How many cigarette/12v sockets?
I feel somewhat silly asking this, but here it goes. According to the fuse chart, it would seem that there are three 12v socket fuses in my 2021 X1. However, I only know of two 12v sockets in the vehicle, the one up front by the cupholders, and the one in the trunk area. Is that 3rd fuse something else, or is there some secret 3rd socket I am unaware of?

Ok wait, I thought I was kidding about a secret third socket, but did some googling and supposedly there is one in the front passenger footwell area

On my new X3, there are only two power sockets, cup holder and trunk although there are extra usb outlets. I think I will have to hardwire dashcam. |

Mine seems to have it, but when I plugged in an adapter, I didn't see it light up as expected. Perhaps I didn't push it in far enough. The piece of plastic the socket is part of seems quite flimsy, and I was hesitant to push it harder. Are there models where the socket is there, but not connected up? Or if it is there, it should likely work?

My pre-LCI F48 has the extra footwell power outlet. It was buried in one of the option packages, I think it was the one that included the LED headlights or ambient lighting - option code S575A Supplementary 12V Sockets:

I also have my Dashcam plugged into the footwell power outlet, however it does power down approximately 5-10 minutes after shutting off the vehicle.
