You can cut a washer with the OD of the bezel and the ID of the lighter. Install the washer on the lighter, place the lighter into the bezel hole, place another washer on the back side of the bezel and then screw on the lighter retainer sleeve.

It is all easy to do. The bezel comes off with a couple of screws at the bottom. If you need help sizing the washer, I can make you one. fostermachine@aol.com

How do you replace the cigaret lighter fuse on a 2001 Kia Sephia?

The cigarette lighter fuse on a 2001 Kia Sephia is replaced by opening the fuse box door and pulling the fuse out using a puller tool. A new fuse is pushed into position by applying even force.


What do you do when your cigarette lighter keeps burning fuses even if they are new and how hard is it to replace the whole lighter?

The problem is probably in the element, the part that gets hot, not in the socket, the part that is in the dashboard. Most auto supply stores carry replacement lighters, or you can find them in a junkyard. Your plug in is probably shorted out or maybe you have some foreign metal in the socket. Try plugging in another lighter. If the fuse blows without the plug in being pushed in, the socket is bad.

Why does your 1997 Chrysler LHS cigarette lighter work but not charge your cell phone or operate your portable CD player?

The cigarette lighter in my 1997 Chrysler LHS works fine with the car charger for my iPhone 4S. Do some research and make sure that you've bought a compatible adapter that provides the correct voltage and amperage for your device. A lot of cheaper chargers can also be cheap and shoddily constructed, leading them to break easily. You also should make sure that you've pushed any charging device all the way in, or it won't be able to draw power and charge your device.

check your fuses check the motor on the sunroof, mine was doing the same. So I pushed the wires going into the motor in the direction from the windshield to the back of the car and it works. Bad connection were wires go into the motor that works the sunroof back and forth.
