Rear Hatch Cig Lighter
#4
Ducky, have you used it recently?
I know on the older rigs like mine, the stock one up front uses a fusable link wire within a few inches of the outlet on the power wire.
It it blows, no juice.
That happened on my '90 truck I use to have, and I simply eliminated the fusable link altogether.
Yours may have one back by the outlet in the power wire, and it could have blown from running something to long back there.
I blew my mine out using an air compressor.

Check the outlet itself. The cig lighter outlet in my truck has a "fuse" in the outlet assembly. It is a small wire-fuse on the back of the outlet. Mine blew/melted when I was running a air compressor.......I searched the fuse panel and found no blown fuses. It wasn't until I removed the outlet and inspected it that I found that 'fuse' int he outlet had blown. I "repaired" mine by soldering in a wire jumper in place of the melted wire-fuse......I felt that the fuse in the fuse box should prevent any fire hazard
Hope this helps.
