shorted my cigarette lighter?? please help!!
I plugged my phone charger into the main cigarette lighter, near the shift ****, and the radio shut off by itself. It came back on a few seconds later, but now the lighter doesn't work. I know this because when I plugged the phone charger into the lighter in the center console, it works. I'm guessing I shorted out a fuse or sometihng of that nature. Can anyone provide any assistance?

thanks! i opened up the fuse box and didin't find anything that said something about the cigarette lighter. the closest thing i found was a fuse labeled "RADIO 1." if it helps, it's a 1999 model.

Not real sure how this could be if the charger works on a different outlet. Care to enumerate?
Anyhow.. The lighter is linked to a fuse, they all are. If you cannot find a labled fuse, just test them all with a standard tester, you will ultimately find one that is blown. Never discount the engine compartment for a fuse check as well. Refer to the owners manual for some locations if you are confused.
