1gear Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 Shove your hand up the side of the dash on the drivers side. The bit that's by the floor. The wire for the socket runs along there. You can grab hold of it and pull it down. There's 3 wires going to it and a connection box. If I was you I'd check that there's power going to the cig plug there first. If there is then you know there's a fault with the cig plug itself. If there isn't then there's a problem somewhere else. The 3 wires are:NeutralLiveLive for the light on the plug. Which only works when you have your lights on. Whether there's a second fuse somewhere I don't know. There could be one on the wires which I've just told you to grab by the connector. Its a bit of a fiddle to get to but they are there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
