Question Cig Lighter Fuse Location?

Ok, well now I'm lookin for the cig lighter fuses, cause it's really driving me crazy not being able to charge my phone lol... Anyhoo, if you could clue me in to the location and amperage of the fuse (have a haynes, but no owner manual ), I'd be very thankful.

Hmm. Well, the only 15a fuse in my kickbox wasn't blown, so maybe it's that one behind the lighter. Any more info on that (location wise)?

Yeah I tried all of regular doodads. Used my car charger which lights up while twistin it all around while the key is in the on (not acc) position. But nah I haven't checked all the fuses, just the one 15a fuse, which looked dandy.

If I recall correctly, there was only one 15a fuse in my kickbox. And my radio is running, so I really have no idea... Is the cig lighter fuse seperate from the radio fuse by any chance?

well if the radio works then it is most likely not a fuse but a contact take a screwdriver and scrape ot the lighter socket to start some times they get fouled up pretty bad.

also has it ever worked and do you have a CB or some aux device setup?
