hello,
my cigarette lighter socket stopped working for awhile, i replaced the socket checked the wires (wires dont seem to be severed) , everything looks fine, it just doesnt work anymore. anyone have any clues on where else to look? thanks guys.

 

one word:




























































fuse

 

Check fuse # 6 (15 amps). The passenger cabin fuse block is located behind a pull-out panel in the lower dashboard, to the left of the steering column. It has three columns of fuses.
Numbered from bottom to top....
- the left-hand column contains fuses 1 - 11
- the middle column contains fuses 12 - 26
- the right-hand column contains fuses 27 - 40

The numbers are molded into the plastic fuse block. They are not easy to read. A flashlight will be helpful.

Aftermarket accessories are often powered by this circuit. Do you have a radar detector, cell phone, etc.? If fuse #6 is blown and the replacement blows right away, check those accessories.
