Car Cigarette Lighter Replacement 

Thank you brother if I haven't seen your video I would never ever be able to install it on my car I thank you a lot

Excellent and very professional video. Thanks!

My Peugeot 206 is from year 2000, but I am pretty sure the the lighter system is the same. This video is clear however, there is a big lack in it. At 1:00 minute, and for the next few seconds, it looks pretty easy to force the lighter plug up by a nice pressure applied with three fingers from its bottom. THIS IS NOT TRUE. After many attempts, and forcing as much as possible, the plug would not move at all, and desperately remained locked in its orange surround ! I spent a lot of time trying to understand, until I found other videos, one from Portugal ( not very clear ), and one from Italy, very clear, where the trick to lift this da..ed plug is revealed. There are two little rectangular notches ( around 3 mm by 1 mm ) in the orange surround that prevent any lifting, and block the plug ! They are opposite at 180 °. You can see one of them in black at 3:31, precisely, just above the right hand thumb nail. What you need is to force these notches from inside with a narrow screwdriver, or the extremity of a knife blade. Once the first one is being forced, or pushed, then you have to insert at the same time an other blade between the top collar and the orange surround to lift the plug a little bit. Then, same operation on the opposite notch. When the two notches do not refrain anymore the plug to get out, then the extraction of the plug body becomes possible, little by little, as it is inserted tight in the orange surround. A little bit of the classic WD 40 helps, when applied to the notches and between the plug and the surround. Two other things : 1) The replacement lighters sold at a cheap price by the lady riding horses with side-saddle are not very well adjusted, and I have had to file the plastic casing a bit in order to plug fully in the wiring plug, at refitting. 2) The reason I had to change the lighter is that the car battery was constantly fully and quickly discharged whenever the vehicle was not used. This was due to the fact that a sound device had been plugged into the lighter hole, and probably due to high consumption, had melted and created some short-circuit. So if your battery mysteriously dies on your car, the test is to push the lighter for operation. If the hot extremity jumps up after 2 to 4 seconds only, ready for satisfying your vice, there is a short-circuit for sure, the whole lighter has to be changed. The normal jump up takes around 10 to 15 seconds to have the lighter ejected red hot. If this test does not reveal a dead lighter, then the search for the electricity leakage is an other story...

I have removed my device and was unable to install it again ! Thank you for the trick.

Very good, clear tutorial. Thanks. I don't suppose anyone has done removal of the centre console plastic piece of the 206? (That piece that has the lighter socket attached in it)? I want to mod it so that I have a USB socket, but want to keep the lighter socket for adapters that need it (tyre pump etc), which don't have USB equivalents.

Merci pour Peugeot 308 au top 👍

Bought the exact model specified in the description, the pins are miles off from the connector. Bit of a shame but I'll have to buy it from Peugot

Visible essence

❤Many thanks , clear .

I’m pushing it from under the connector like in the video and I cannot remove it ever with all the force from my finger, what am I doing wrong ?

Thank you for sharing.Just need to find a nice Havana Cigar to light up with a glass of Guinness to cellebrate the New Year ! All the Best to you and the Channel . M🎆

Tanx man 👌

Maybe you can help me ? My cigarette lighter is stuck in the socket and won't come out, no matter how hard I pull on it. When I bought my car used, the previous owner removed all cigarette lighters, so I used one from another car, and it's "stuck" in there. Should I drill it out ? or really pull hard ? If I pull too hard it may tear out the wiring harness. You seem to be very good with your hands, so what would you do ? I'm thinking just to drill it out ?? What do you think ?? Good video BTW.

Optimum ❤

If it was only that easy this a car expert I think he is having us on, good video but no help s I'm still with out a cigarette lighter, brought new, peugote 206, got the same pins seem to be the right on but no way on will it let me fit it, So???? Help plz

There's no way in hell that was so easy. You smashed the first one, this is done with a brand new one. They all melt, so they can't be replace without breaking it

Is it possible to adjudst this into a mazda 2 2009?

is there any video for Fiat Linea 1.4, 77hp, 2008? Thank you!

So i can get a replacement lighter/outlet from walmart? To fit on this here cable terminal ?

Anybody know what the different colour cables are? I'm looking to swap out for usb but the new unit only has + and - cables.

is it necessary to disconnect battery?

Does anybody know where the fuse for the lighter is?

does the 206 replacement fit the 207 as well ?
