This one's the fusebox in the interior of the car; usually below the steering wheel in a panel with a thumbscrew that you just give a quarter-turn, then catch it as it opens; inside are some fuses, which tend to be obvious when they are blown. There's a little legend that tends to be well-lit too, indicating which fuses were for the ligher/'auxillary 12v power' socket. Don't let a failed lighter bust on you; a flaming car is much more expensive than tossing/replacing the bad part or plugging something else in.
It located in the fuse panel inside the vehicle. I really do not have a great picture of the fuse layout but that's what I have below. The fuse will be in the number 16 position and it should be a 20 amp fuse. Wish I had a better picture for you but hopes this helps anyway....
There's no big secret in the fusebox. Normally, these are properly labelled as(headlights, signal lights, accessories, lighter (cigarette), etc. However, assuming that there are no labels, you can check each of the fuse which is busted, using a electrical multi-tester. you can begin the check up as follows; 1. Set the multi tester to Ohms, 1 x 10 or 1 x 100. 2. Take the fuse one at a time, and place the probes (red and black wires) one at each end of the of fuse contacts. The reading must be zero for good ones and no movement for the busted ones. After the fuse is checked, just remount it to the fusebox. I'm sure you will be able to get the cigarette lighter working again after you have replace the busted fuse. Be sure to replace it with the same rating.
you probably didnt change the right fuse and had another one blown at the same time you also could have a primary fuse under the hood that blew. once fixed dont use pump again. not same amps drawn
There are 2 fuses that powers the radio, cigar lighter, etc.
They are: the 10 amp "GAUGE" and the 15 amp "CIG".
Look under the dash, on the driver side. The "CIG" fuse is the one that you need to replace.
It is in the middle of the fusebox, bottom row. again, a 15 amp fuse.
Please advise if you need additional information.
