lexus999 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I have a 95 SC400, my cigarette lighter stopped working. I have checked all the fuses under the hood and in the panel inside the car; and there is no burnt fuse. I was told that I need to check the wiring of the lighter. Can someone give me quick instruction on how to get to this wiring (i.e., how to open the console.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
straight_6 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 slap a volt meter on the cigarette light wiring if it read 12 volts then it might be the cigarette light that is busted. if not there might be a short somewhere.
