Check for 'Hand Lamp', it might be fuse 36.
I used the same point to run my Road Angel on my E53 as well.

Thanks very much for that.
Do you know what I went through that list 2-3 times but as the following fuse is something to do with the headlights so every time I saw hand my brain read it as head ::), never mind got there in the end, thanks once again

Where is the rechargeable torch ?
I didn't think the e70 had one ?
Either that or I have missed it for the last 10 months of ownership :-[

I don't think they were supplied with the E70, and most E53s seem to have theirs missing!! I had to pointedly ask the Dealer for mine when the car was new. Same on the E46 as that has one too. Sits on a little socket on the RHS of the glovebox on both cars.
I've never seen it even mentioned for the newer cars.

I haven't had mine long but don't think mine has now. Only thing in my glovebox is a cd changer.

My F10 didn't have one. BMW saving a few pence on every model.
