On our 95 ES300, I was powering a DC-AC converter for a 100Watt sub-woofer and now the outlet doesn't work. Checked with VOM and the actual lighter.
1. I have checked the 15 amp fuse in the fuse box and it is ok.
2. We tried to pull out the cigarette lighter assembly, took off the wood panel, took out the two screws, was really loose, but would not come out yet. Searched everywhere and could not see any other releases or anything else holding it. One thread mentioned a release just above the lighter, but cannot see it.
3. We have read of another 7 or 7.5 amp fuse for the cigarette lighter, but cannot find that.
I think we will run another wire for the amp, but still want the cig lighter to work. Any hints on the best place to connect a wire to for around 10 amps peak draw?
