Cig Lighter stopped working?? HELP!!

Hey everyone, i was trying to install some neons and i tapped into the cig lighter (power) and it worked for about 2 days... then suddenly it went out.... anyways since then i have re-located the neons to a different power source.... however i still cant get my cig lighter to work (annoying when you have to charge a cell).

Anyways i was wondering what it is i could have possibly fried.....

I am assuming its just a fuse... but i dont know where it is located. (BTW the harness is plugged in)


Any help would be grealy appreciated.

either fuse (check instruction manual) or you forgot to plug the harness back in.

it could also be called 12v socket, small light fuse, or backup fuse.

never mind... i figured it out...

i did trial and error.. i took out every single fuse out of the car....

It was a 15 amp fuse (blue)... located in the interior... under the steering column.

Thanks anyways.
