Where is the fuse for the cigarette lighter on a 2009 Nissan sentra?

Answer 1

1st: Locate the fusebox, usually under/behind the instrument panel (where your knees would hit the dash)-(see user's manual for exact location) sometimes located under the glovebox.

2nd: On the inside of the fusebox cover you will find the reference for what fuses do what. If the fuse for the cig lighter isn't labeled specifically, look at the Accy, or Assy, fuse. (Accessory).

3rd: Actually look at the suspect fuse. You should see a break, or gap in the metal band that runs through the fuse. (This band is usually "S" shaped).

There should be extra fuses somewhere in the fusebox, or on the cover, if not, go to the Auto Parts store and buy them.

BE SURE TO REPLACE THE BAD FUSE WITH ONE OF THE SAME SIZE !!!

The fuses are labeled according to their ampacity.

There will be a number on the fuse; usually 10, 15, 20, 30. This is the current rating of the fuse.

Hope this helps,

I own a 2006 Dodge Stratus, and I also had a problem with my cigarette lighter socket. I located the exact fuse by accident the other day.

-The owner's manual DOES NOT specify a fuse for the cigarette lighter.

-The internal fuse box cover DOES NOT specify a fuse for the cigarette lighter. (This fuse box is located below and to the left of the steering wheel. Access by opening the driver door, then pull the cover off to reveal the fuse box. The fuse diagram is under the cover.)

-The fuse for the cigarette lighter is located in ANOTHER FUSE BOX UNDER THE HOOD next to the positive (red) jumper cable terminal. Remove the cover by pinching the tabs inward. The cigarette lighter fuse is a 20 amp fuse on the bottom row.

Answer 2

locate the fuse box under the coin holder. Push fuse remover over fuse and pull. This will easily take out the fuse for replacement.

The fuse chart is on the back side of the change/coin holder. I found the cigarette lighter fuse to be 15 A and in the 3rd column over and 3rd fuse down.

Answer 3

I have a 2001 Pathfinder so hopefully arranged the same. The fuse box is located under the change/coin holder. Pull it all the way out and off. It will expose the fuse box. On the back side of the change holder is the fuse chart. It takes a 15 A fuse. I found the cigarette lighter to be in the third column over from left and the 3rd fuse down. This seems to also be the fuse that controls the other dc outlets in the vehicle. I have one inside middle console and also one in rear of vehicle.
