Stuck Cigarette Lighter

Hi MACadct,

You were on the right track when you said that th lighter wasn't warm or hot and no juice is flowing. There is a fuse blown but just not the one you were expecting. I had a similar problem with a stuck lighter after having used an air compressor powered off the lighter. The fuse indicated on the diagram was fine so I checked all fuses and found that D5 (third row down, five from left) was blown. When I replaced the fuse the lighter popped right out.

So, the solution that Burg Boxster proposed to replace the lighter won't actually fix the problem (sorry Burg Boxster) even if it does give you an upgraded lighter.

You might check all the fuses one by one until you find which fuse is blown.

Good luck,

CarmanGhia
