Cigarette lighter problems - 1992 Honda Accord EX

it could be the connector wire on the cig lighter. check it is all there and that the pin and clip are in the right place. check that there is no other problems with other electronics.

Check your fuses and relays. Make sure the connections in the back of the lighter are solid, and ensure that your heater core isn't plugged.

Are you fixing the cigarette lighter or the socket? If the fuse is good most of the time it is a corrotion problem. Rust on the metals cause poor contact. Don't stick a metal object in there though because you will blow the fuse.

I'm sorry if this sounds a little too vague, but when the exact same thing happened to our Accord, my husband handled it and I wasn't really involved. Someplace you should have a card (It's either in with your papers if you bought the car new or if you bought it used, hopefully the last owners left in the glovebox or ? .) that has a 'security code' on it for 'resetting' the radio, etc. (There's some sort of an auto-shut-off in case someone is trying to steal your radio, etc..). When you follow the directions on the card and punch-in the numbers, it automatically resets and the radio and lighter* come back on (*BTW, I'm not sure if our lighter ever went out...??). If you can't find the card, then you'll have to go into a Honda dealership (They will NOT give out the # over the phone!) and by using your VIN they can look-up your #, although I don't know if they charge for this service or not. Hope this is of some help to you! BEST OF LUCK!

try a google search for online fuse box diagram for your car
list make and exact model like accord ls, dx, ex, whatever it is. I tried to scan/paste a diagram here but it would not be undestandable as it jumbled it up.

you have to replace the clock, there is a electronic fault in the clock.

it probly need a new one

Yes there is a fuse corresponding to this which has cut off. It is located in the car under the driver frontage.

Good luck.

Rate this please.

They probably share the same fuse. Sounds like cig lighter coil is shorted and "fiddling around" blew the fuse. Replace the fuse and try a different lighter coil.
