Clikdik Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 It got a message from the Surgeon-General and is trying hard to pass it on to you. Leave it AS-IS and save yourself a lot of money and grief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newportman Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 LOL, I don't smoke, thats not why I want it to work, would be nice to have acess to the power plug for phone chargers, the GPS & such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must just be jammed try to pry a small flat head under and push it down, then lift gently with the screw driver. Bet some coins or trash has gotten in it and jammed it up.

newportman Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 I'll give that a try, it was jammed when I bought the car about a year ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEXIRX330 Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 You are a patient man! I know I would have got it opened or broke it within 10 mins of figuring out it was jammed. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newportman Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 That sucker is jammed tight, I pried on it a little today but it won't budge & I really don't want to crack the trim so not sure what to try next...maybe just leave it alone.
