A car accessory socket not working means a lot these days. With this how to fix car charger not working video, you can easily do this yourself and save a trip to the dealer! Power outlet not working in cars/car charger outlet not working could mean no charging of phones, use of portable tire inflators etc.
IF you are looking for how to fix car accessory socket or how to repair car cigarette lighter, or put another way, how to fix car charger outlet or how to fix a car cigarette lighter that is not working or just how to fix your car cigarette lighter, you will find this car cigarette lighter repair video helpful.

A blown fuse for the cigarette lighter socket is a frequent cause of loss of power. On this vehicle, the fuse to replace is number 9 in the under dash fusebox.

Piyke, I want to let you know that I really appreciate you sharing this fix. I have yet to change out a fuse and not sure if I have spares yet, but I will definitely follow your directions and am sure it will work! Had my alternator replaced, so something could have happened to blow the fuse, I presume. Thank you!
@DIYAutoworksNG
@DIYAutoworksNG 2 года назад
Thanks for thr compliment! On your alternator, they happen to have a number of internal components that just wear out over time due to friction and the intense heat they work in. This is to say that it may have just gone out due to wear. All the best and thanks again!

Any recommendations? My cigarette lighter and OBD2 port aren't working I think it's my entire 12 volt system. I replaced all fuses but they were in good shape and changing them didn't do anything. Thanks!
@DIYAutoworksNG
@DIYAutoworksNG 5 лет назад
So my bet would be on the fuses. In fact just last week, I dealt with a friend's car whose OBDII port was not working. On this model, the fuse for the OBDII port is in the engine fuse box. It's marked "ECU" and I think it's on position 15 (double check). Were fuses you replaced for the underdash fuse box?

Looks like you have a parasitic drain in that cigarette lighter circuit. Do you know how to check for parasitic drains? If you don't interim measure could be removing the fuse for the cigarette lighter.

Either the connector or the wiring. Use a multimeter to test whether you have 12v at the connector. You can also remove the panel to check the wires directly. Check the prongs of the connector under the panel to be sure it does have flux or corrosion.

Test the connector prongs for voltage. If you don't have 12volts & ground, that means you'll have to trace the wiring to see where the short is.

@DIYAutoworksNG
@DIYAutoworksNG 3 года назад
Yea. You should use the exact fuse rating. The 15A fuse is there to protect the accessory socket in case there is a surge and current higher than 15A is sent to the part. With a higher fuse capacity (20A), you risk having the part damaged rather than the inexpensive fuse.

@DIYAutoworksNG
@DIYAutoworksNG 2 года назад
Could be a wiring issue or that the cigarette lighter itself is broken. To confirm this, you will have to go beneath the power outlet/cigarette lighters to test for voltage at the prongs that plug into both parts.
@DIYAutoworksNG
@DIYAutoworksNG 2 года назад
Radio looks like a totally different issue. I'm guessing the radio wasn't working before you changed the fuse? Also using the wrong fuse will cause issues. Lower rating equals fuse being blown again. Higher rating current can damage the part the fuse is meant to protect, be it radio, cigarette lighter or power outlet.

@@DIYAutoworksNG actually no it was working fine earlier this week ive only had it in my jeep for a few months its my first vehicle no license yet it needs some work and idk if the cigarrete lighter or power outlet worked before but I did all the wiring to my radio i put inrealky well and actually someone who had this before me put in two wrong amp fuses I noticed so I matched them up with the correct ones and my battery us new recently bought it its only like 2 months or so old and I checked it charged it the other day because my jeep wouldn't start then it did but I still checked the starter relay and ignition starter fuses didn't see no break in the middle the metal piece but some ends looked a bit black or burnt but I replaced them still didn't fix my issues so im not sure whats going up

Not sure what's going on with the radio, perhaps check your wiring again? Did the Jeep have a weak crank when it initially refused to start? If it didn't, did you try starting in Neutral? Just to rule out poor contacts in the transmission range switch.

@@DIYAutoworksNG once I got it running again it started up fast compared to before when it took longer to start right up or how just few days ago itd just crank or make a rapid clicking sound but wouldnt turn over idk of its from not running it for a few weeks to a few months in this cold weather cuz it started them few days later it wouldnt should I clean the ends of the new fuses I put in could them being dirty at all effect them from working

before all this try rotating your device in the socket SLOWLY if you get power STOP... leave it in position.. hopefully it will keep going if you dont knock it... mines been like this for a month.. probably a loose connection or inaccurate housing, avoids garage bill or all this !!

Thanks for your comment! One of the videos from the early days, and I'm happy I've improved filming and editing since then. Still committed to continuous improvement!

People still drive them! While you may not find a specific video for the 2001 accord, the principles from the video above are the same. Best of luck!

On 2001 if you change the fuse, not it, buy a new cigarette socket. I replaced in my car. Ordered at Auto Zone

You can follow the steps in the video to troubleshoot. Before that, did you try wiggling the device to see if its poor contacts?

What did you plug in after replacing the fuses? Seems its drawing more amps than the fuse is capable of handling...

One's little mind wonders WHAT CAUSE FUSE BLOW ? Wasted time watching all these videos replacing fuses, no thought about cause. Just sayin
@DIYAutoworksNG
@DIYAutoworksNG 2 года назад
Thanks for the feedback. Fuses typically blow because the part they are designed to protect drew more current than usual or more current than the fuse could carry. The fuse breaks as a safety measure. Parts can sometimes draw more current when they are becoming defective. Also fuse may fail because the alternator is producing too much current.

Funny...I'm a woman and bought myself a car. Non smoker, but want to use it as a power outlet. Now I'm not a technician, but it took me 2 seconds to think about replacing the fuse......reading the comments I don't get why you guys didn't figure it out yourself???? 🤔

@@DIYAutoworksNG true! I totally agree. But you know how it goes, we women are often stigmatised for not understanding these sort of subjects, but as I can read in the comments it's not a gender based thing. Glad it's confirmed 😁. Thanks for your posts, very helpful! 🙏🏼

An FM transmitter is incorporated into car mp3 players. Your phone connects by Bluetooth to the transmitter to play music and the transmitter transmits the music via radio waves to the FM frequency, which your car radio can pick up if you tune into that same frequency.

Changing the fuse made no difference...

Then it could be the cigarette lighter itself or that there's a short in the wiring. You may have to pull off the cigarette lighter and check the prongs of the electrical connector for voltage.
