My wife went to pull out her cellphone charger out of the cig lighter, and it sparked. The clock, lighter, and radio stopped working. Easy enough, the fuse is blown. I replaced the fuse, and the radio came on for a second and went right back off. The fuse didn't blow as the clock and lighter still work. Is there another fuse in the back of the head unit, or is it possible that it's blown? I didn't have the time tonight to pull it completely out, but I didn't want to waste my time tomorrow pulling it apart and looking for one if there isn't.

 

what kind of car ? my sisters keep doing that tell i seen she had drop a few dimes down inside of the cig lighter and it didint hurt the radio

 

oops....97 4Runner

 

so you just replaced the 15a acc fuse inside ?

 

Yep. The clock and cig lighter are working again, but not the radio.

 

There is another fuse (or fusable link) behind the radio/cd player
Goodluck-Hiriden

 

Cool. Thanks. Same style fuse or different? Also, know the amperage by chance?
