    Default Mystery area near ignition. What is this for?

    I have a 2017 F3 Limited. There’s an area to the right of the ignition where there’s a little cap that can be lifted. When you lift it up, it looks like there’s a fuse or something with wires attached. Does anyone know what this is for? Sorry about the photo being twisted. I tried to turn it to the right, but couldn’t with this program. Oh well! Thanks!

    Default switch

    That's the area for the fog light's switch. Fog lights are plug-n-play on a F-3.

    Bball, just for future posts, you can rotate the photo in a couple of seconds with your basic photo editing features in your PC/Ipad/iPhone folder, and then upload it......

    Thanks, much appreciated. Btw, I moved from Ventura, CA to Port Angeles WA a couple years ago. Hope you survived the fires there without casualty.

    Understood. The photo was right side up in my IPad. When I up loaded it with the site’s program, it tweaked the photo counterclockwise. Why? Who knows ...

    Default Switch blanks

    The key has a surround bezel. Turn it counterclockwise until it stops. Lift it out. You can now lift the whole piece, seat the cover, and reassemble it.

    Default It's how you hold your phone or tablet.

    It has to do with how you hold your phone or tablet when taking pictures. You have to hold it sideways so the picture is taken in landscape mode. Not vertical in portrait mode. Pictures taken in portrait are assumed to be landscape and turned sideways by this website. But it applies everywhere mostly for videos. I found a video that explains it very well. https://youtu.be/yAd9sMbLBtc

    We were OK, the fires only got to within two miles of us. They mostly burned the open areas and I the worst locations the first row of houses above Foothill Rd. I moved to Sun City West Az in June. I guess I should update my profile.

    I used to live in the houses just below Foothill, but we moved in March 2016. It was a good move. California was just getting too crowded. Hope you’re liking the new neighborhood.
