Default Help with Power?

Hey guys. In my 98 GS for some reason neither of my cigarette lighter holes provide any power. They dont operate. What could be the problem and what is the fix?

Maybe the fuses are blown for those particular outlet? Check your owners manual to find out where the fuses are and then pull the fuses and see if they are blown. Good luck

I think they are in the fuse panel inside the car. In mine it is in the drivers footwell. You should see a panel down there that pops off. But you will need the owners manual to figure out which fuse is for which item.

Don't forget that the cigarette lighter power is switched, that is, the car has to be in at least in the "run" position. (it doesn't have to be running, just enough to think that it is.)
