Hi.
most cigarette sockets are fused at 10 amps and should not be run above this.
on the other hand, most tyre compressors are designed to plug into a cagarette lighter and do not use this amount of power.
without more details the best thin i can suggest is that you find where the fuse is for the socket, get a few spares of the same rating , and try the compressor on it. if the fuse blows, yuou will have to try something else.
Depends on the fuse rating for that circuit-you should be able to find that information in your owners manual, but if you do not have one,m plugging in the compressor and running it will determine if it is rated to rund that load-the fuse will pop, or it won't. 15 amps is not a large draw, you did not list the year and model but most power ports are 20+ amp rated and older cars (with cigarette lighters) were 30 amp.
