Short in the wiring or the lighter socket is defective.
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
Wrong amp of fuse
A short.
Most of the time this is a corroded or bad lighter. Disconnect the lighter and if it no longer blows the fuse, replace the lighter and lighter receptacle.
1. blown fuse 2. broken wire from fuse block to lighter 3. bad ground 4. bad lighter
how come my cigarette lighter keeps blowing fuses in my 2000 ranger
Look in the owners manual and it will give you the location. Look in the bottom of the lighter and see if a coin has fallen into it, blowing the fuse.
The radio and the cigarette lighter are on the same fuse, I would check the fuse first.
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.
The fuse is in the fuse block and is the same fuse as the radio. The fuse block is under the dash on the right side of the steering column.
The circuit has a short or is overloaded.
How to fix the cigar lighter on your Celebrity depends on what is wrong with it. I can't tell from here what is wrong with it, but one of these should do it: It may simply have a blown fuse. If so replace the fuse. The wiring could have failed, again replace the wiring. If the socket is corroded, rusty or has failed altogether then replace the socket. If the lighter itself is failed then replace the lighter.
