Want this question answered?
how come my cigarette lighter keeps blowing fuses in my 2000 ranger
Keeps your car from catching fire if you plug in a shorted out accessory!!
i have a 2001 Chevy Tahoe 5.3 fuel injected vortex and my cigarette lighter keeps blowing out. i replaced it with 15 amps fuses but it keeps burn it out. i just want to no if that the right amps for this car
I assume you mean the fuse keeps blowing? It's certainly possible for the lighter element itself to go bad as well as the socket you plug it into. Also, there are often other circuits that use the same fuse.
No, you could overload the wiring and start a fire.
You might be pulling too much power through the cigarette lighter. Also the cigarette lighter may grounding out for some reason or another. If the car has an aftermarket stereo, whoever installed it may have miswired it.
Three possibilities, one the lighter is bad or the wire is grounding and the other is the socket has something in it or broken. My son had put a penny in mine and for the longest it was out of service. Good Luck.
Far left side of the dashboard under the pop-out panel. The users manual will tell you which fuse it is. 20 amp I believe. Mine keeps blowing the fuse so I put a disposable Bic lighter in the armrest.
Believe it or not, I have had to disconnect the cig lighter in order for the tail lights to work. Sounds far fetched but it does work!
A fuse that keeps blowing is an indication of a malfunctioning ignition. The ignition may be the culprit or the wiring leading to the ignition may be the problem.
A cigar tube is used to keep the cigar from losing it's quality and keeps it from being damaged. It is easily stored with a tube whereas otherwise you would need to store it in certain areas.
Both, I work at a cigar and tobacco shop. We have a huge cigar case with a humidor. A humidor keeps them fresh, wrapper, or not-just throw them in:-)
