2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT. I touched the wires together on back of cig lighter and it sparked, now my power windows don't work. I was wondering why and how to fix it?

It's possible that when you touched the wires together on the back of the cigarette lighter, you may have blown a fuse that controls the power windows. This is because the cigarette lighter and the power windows may share a fuse in the vehicle's electrical system.

To fix the issue, you will need to locate the fuse box in your Mitsubishi Eclipse GT. The fuse box is usually located under the dashboard on the driver's side of the vehicle or in the engine compartment. Once you have located the fuse box, check the fuse that controls the power windows. The fuse box cover should have a diagram that shows which fuse controls the power windows.

If the fuse is blown, you will need to replace it with a new one. Make sure to use the correct type of fuse and the appropriate amperage rating. The amperage rating for the power windows fuse should be listed in your vehicle's owner's manual or on the inside of the fuse box cover.

If the fuse is not blown, the issue may be related to the power window motor or a wiring issue. In this case, it's best to have a professional mechanic diagnose and repair the problem to avoid any further damage to the vehicle's electrical system.

Question edited for clarity and funky spelling of the maker. It is written on the car, don't you see it every time you drive :>D

Cigar lighter (power outlet) fuse in the Mitsubishi Eclipse is the fuse #16 (Power Outlet) in the Instrument panel fuse box.
