Want this question answered?
There is something else in the hole or the retaining clip is bent down causing interference.
The cigarette lighter is commonly wired into something else. Check the dash lights and tail lights, as they are the two most common places to connect the lighter to.
The owner's manual does not state a specific fuse for the cigarette lighter, but it worked a few months ago, and now doesn't. Could it be something else?
Yes, but the fuse may also control something else such as the radio or cigarette lighter.
Bad contact somewhere in the cigarette lighter. Check the circuit with a continuity checker device.
There is a fusebox in the passenger compartment. Check your owners manual, it will tell you how to find it. Thanks for the information... There is no fuse in the owner's manual labeled "Cigarette Lighter"... I assume the cigarette lighter fuse is labeled as something else... Do you know what it is labeled?Could be labelled something like, Accessory, or, Aux. Hard to say. It should be a 15A fuse, so just pull all of the 15A fuses and make sure they aren't fried.
Maybe someone wanted to stop someone else from using it?
Bad lighter maybe? Something else hooked into the same circuit and when you use the lighter it overloads the circuit, blowing the fuse? because of where the lighter outlet sets anything you plug in get hit by the shifter check for loose or frayed wires behind it
Either there is a fault in the cell phone charger (try it in something else) or the wires on the cigarette lighter socket are reverse polarity. Check centre of socket is positive.
Usually the lighter is shared with something else (like the horn). Check to see if there is something else not working and look for that fuse.
all looms are the same whether it has electric windows, cigarette lighter, central locking or not, look at 1 with it and use the same wires which will be capped off in yours
tar and something else which i forgot
