Title: Ciggy Lighter
Post by: EuanGtTdi on 09 June 2009, 13:39

Hi guys,

my cigerette lighter in the front has stopped working but the one in the boot still works  :undecided:

so if it was the fuse would both of them stop working or do they have separate fuses?

or are these a general fault and break easy and need to get a new one for the front?

Is it the lighter has stopped working or power to the socket? As i can still use mine to charge the sat-nav but the lighter doesn't work.

The lighter doesnt, and when i put my ipod player into it, it doesnt turn on or charge it! so guess theres no power aswel if its not doing this?

but one in the boot makes the lighter got bright red, and turns on and charges my ipod player

Not sure what to suggest apart from getting in the boot when you want a cigarette  :grin:

I am sure someone on here will know which fuse to check

Same here had same problem cig lighter socket not working since owned car checked fuse as stated on the fuse cover and its the other side not where it say on that diagram.i changed cig socket for a new one still didnt work done a voltage check and there no power still.so going have a check in morning at fuses on other side so fingers crossed....
