Nov 17, 2011
I guess the thread title says it all. VW service agent says that they can't find something like this on the VAG scan - is this true?

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: Fuse Controls Cigarette Lighter Stopped Working
My fuse controls cigarette lighter has apparently stopped working. I use it to charge my phone on trips. I had plugged in an inverter in an attempt to run a small fridge (for camping) and maybe that blew it out. The inverter didn't work but I could run it directly off the battery terminals. that was too much work and there were bears around anyway so I bagged the project.
View 9 RepliesChevrolet - Astro :: Lighters Don't Work - Checked Both Fuse Boxes
I just had a rebuilt engine put in my 1999 Chevy Astro. However, when I got it back the lighter and auxiliary lighters don't work. I checked the fuses under the driver's side dash and the one for the lighter looked good. I change it anyhow, and it still doesn't work. Anything else I should check? I am planning a long trip and would like to use my radar detector.
View 6 RepliesVolvo - 240 :: New Radio Now Rear Wipers Not Working And Cigarette Lighter Is Dead Too
I'm new to volvo, recently I got a 240 wagon 1991 (207000km)
The old Radio is dead and I'm thinking of replacing it with a new one, My rear wiper is not working and the cigarette lighter is dead too, I hear that the rear wiper , radio, and cigarette lighter are all connected to the same circuit, is that true?
Will I have any problems installing the radio or I should just follow the radio's installation manual and it will work ?
Ford Ranger / B-Series :: 2011 - High Beams Not Working Even Replaced Fuse
I have a 2011 ford ranger XL and I get no high beams. My low beams work fine but when I try to either activate the high beams or pull for the flash to pass they do not illuminate and the indicator on the dash doesn't come up either. I have replaced the fuse with a fresh one, even though it didn't need to be replaced, and also replaced the headlights as well cause one was burnt out.
View 1 RepliesPrius (Gen 2) :: Cigarette Lighter Fuse Have Blown
So I have an Android smartphone. That I always put on the charger in my 2005. However. I have blown the fuse to the cigarette lighter. Both the one in the center console and the one under the passenger side dashboard.
The last time that happened. I bought the indicated 15 Amp fuse (as the Owner's Manual indicates - vaguely) Only to find that swapping out fuse 20 IIRC. Yielded no power to those ports.
Suburban :: 98 - Cigarette Lighter Fuse Blow Often
Every couple of days, my 20 amp cigarette lighter fuse (#13) will blow. It is connected to the lumbar seats, the cigarette lighter, the interior door lock switches (not the key FOB - that is separate). I've tried using a 25 amp and that didn't work.
View 8 RepliesEscort :: Radio Went Off After Some Fuse Replacement Of Cigarette Lighter
So I have a really weird problem. The cigarette lighter in my 97 Ford Escort wasn't working, so I thought I'd check the fuse. Got under the dash, pulled the fuse, sure enough, it was blown. So I threw a new 20A in there. I put my usb charger back in the cigarette lighter, and had to wiggle it a little bit to get it to work, but it worked. (It's always been like this, the actual housing is probably shorting out, which could be the cause of the blown fuse, i Know lol)
So I turn off the car and walk back in the house. 10 minutes later I come back out to the car, and the light on the usb charger is still on, as is the RADIO. It simply won't turn off! No key in the ignition, nothing. But the radio is still on, and the cigarette lighter still has power.
So out of curiosity, I pulled the new fuse I just put in. The radio turned off. But get this. The cigarette lighter still works. I think it may have been working the whole time, but I for some reason was never able to wiggle it just right to get it to work. So the cigarette lighter seems to have no change with or without the fuse, but the radio will be stuck on all the time if there is a fuse in this spot.
Phaeton :: Hazard Lights Are Not Working After Recirculation Motor Being Replaced

View 5 RepliesFord F-150 (2009-2014) :: 2010 Lariat - Cigarette Lighter Fuse Location?
There I was driving down the road, minding my own business. My phone was charged full so I reached to disconnect the car charger and the tip fell off the charger and shorted out my cigarette lighter socket. My owners manual does not show where the fuse is located in the fuse box? It does not mention the "lighter fuse" by name......
I called the Ford Dealership parts department where I purchased my Lariat and was told I he could not nor would not tell me which fuse is blown. Everything else seems to work. Haven't tried my sync lately, better do that. Where the fuse is? My fuse box is inside engine compartment by the radiator.
Ford Ranger / B-Series :: No Power At Cigarette Lighter - Fuse Checks Good?
I have a 96 Ranger . Neither my cigarette lighter or the auxiliary right beneath it works. The fuse checks good at the panel and I also used one of the penlight 12 volt testers and it shows no voltage on the lighter housing. Could there be another fuse under the hood that shares that circuit or do I have an open somewhere and need to tear down the dashboard? I haven't been inside that dashboard since I replace my cluster and the lighter worked after doing so. But I wish to avoid going back in there.
View 3 RepliesLexus SC430 :: 7.5A Dome Fuse Keeps Blowing - Immediately Pops After Replacement
I've went onto TIS and received some info in regards to the electrical components of 2002 sc430.
Fuse 19 on Passenger Box: Interior light, personal lights, vanity lights, foot lights, ignition switch light, trunk light, antenna, garage door opener system audio system.
Each time I install a new fuse, it immediately pops. Wondering how to diagnose root cause. Often it seems that wires ran through door grommet can become exposed....I have done no modifications to the vehicle. Not sure if there is a particular area I should start looking for exposed wires, I have a feeling it is going to be a long process with my skill level to find the short.
Phaeton :: Cigarette Lighter / Power Adapter Removal In Center Console
I'm working on replacing my center console with a wooden one. I'm having trouble getting the center box (under the arm rest) removed; I found the 4 screws in it but I'm having trouble getting the cigarette lighter / power adapter out. The outlet doesn't seem to push forward like, say, the one next to the shifter lever. Nor does it seem to unscrew. Am I missing something obvious?

View 2 RepliesLexus RC F 2015+ :: 30 Amp Fuse Died - Front Seat Stopped Working
Right Front Seat Stopped Working. It was about 2 months after I got the car or 2 weeks after I had it hardwired for a Police Radar power source. I'm pretty sure it was working after the custom police radar power source. I haven't even used the power source since I'm still waiting for the radar to come. So, I don't think it was that or maybe yes.
I went to my dealer and it was there for about 2 days trying to figure out what went wrong. It turns out the 30 amp fuse blew up or died.
Prius (2004-09) :: Rear Window Defogger Stopped Working - Fuse Location?
My rear window defogger has stopped working. The owners manual, page 316, has the 3 fuse box locations and it says there is a 40 amp fuse in location #2 in fuse box under dash (says there is a 30 amp in location #1 for power windows). When I popped the cover off the fuse box and looked - there are NO fuses greater that 25 amps anywhere. Windows work fine. in addition - none of the actual fuse numbers line up with what the manual says or with what the inside of the fuse box cover says.

View 19 RepliesFord A/C :: Replaced Front Heater Core Now No Heat In Rear
2000 Expedition. Had ford mechanic replace front heater core due to not having heat in the front and back. wife brings it home I check all vents and notice there's good heat up front but not the back, then I switch the rear from panel to floor heat and hear a thumping sound (figure the blend door is doing it) still no heat in rear. returned to ford mechanic and they stated my blender door switch is not working properly, so they flushed out rear core and instead of fixing the blender door switch they kept it on floor position and charged me another bill. could it be possible that while replacing front core the gunk made it to the rear hoses and core, and clogged it up, and damaged the blender door switch somehow. prior to my heat issues I never had any problems with the rear blender door, just no heat due to front core needing replaced according to them "FORD".

View 1 RepliesGolf IV / Jetta IV :: 2005 - Cigarette Lighter Not Working
Common issue, tried to the common fixes, nada. Checked fuse 41 - cigarette lighter, wasn't blown, swapped it with another 15A anyway, still no power. Cleaned the contacts inside as best I could with a wire brush, nothing. The red illuminated ring around the lighter lights up, but no power to the cig lighter still.
We're moving out of state in July and it will be a two day trip, want to make sure that the car charger will work before we leave.
Prius (2010-12) :: Tail / License And Rear Turn Signal Lights Not Working - Fuse Blowing
This issue came on suddenly. I unplugged the license plate lights- fuse still blew. I don't know where the wire harness is for this group of wires going to these lights to check for frayed or melted wires. I don't see any damage any where. I am severely limited for funds for a mechanic so I need to try and figure this out first myself. Looking for pictures of how I can traces the wires through the car?
