Cigarette Lighter Socket

Post by Doughrat19 »

Anyone know which one is correct for our cars? I'm not sure what they mean about a trim ring. I just replaced my center console and now mine is not working. I'll probably mess with it a little bit next weekend to see if I can get it working but if now I need to order a new one.

Check your side view mirrors and see if you blew a fuse. Its possible that when you reassembled it, your grounding out your hot wire and causing a short. There is alot of small pieces that you have to get right. Otherwise it will short out all the time.
