benji123oshea123 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Hello, I've changed the fuse but my lighter socket is still not working? Any ideas or suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey923 Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 If it's not the fuse take out your cig lighter and check if there's a current flowing using a multimeter. If there is sufficient current just buy a new cig lighter off eBay or something. I'm watching one atm that's Buy It Now for €3 with free shipping.. And it's one of the light up surrounding ones. Can get it in green, red or blue light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey923 Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Not a messy job either :) It was a must have for me because my OEM one had no illumination around it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spook Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 For the 2012 Fiesta Zetec 1225cc vehicle, the cigarette lighter fuse is the Blue 20amp one next to the 30amp on the bottom. And the best bit, it costs £6. Mine has just blown. The fuse box is NOT shown in any of the generic manuals. I went to my Ford dealer and spoke to the service manager, who came and showed me.You can down load a schematic on line according to my service manager, he tried to down load it but their system was down. IT IS NOT the 15amp fuse on this series car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
