Re: think fuse is gone but which one
If the radio & mirrors aren't working either, then it'll be fuse 8 by the drivers right knee, ie top right in the fuse box. Otherwise it could be on the back of the socket itself - http://www.igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/forum/ ... it=lighter
You can't polish a turd - but you can roll it in glitter.

If you got a light on the plug/sat nav charger for the cig lighter? Give it a firm push & a jiggle till the light comes on or charge symbol on sat nav... maybe just a connection/continuity issue in the socket? They can do that, especially if they spent years just to light fags.....
Cheaper by comparison to a race horse...

Mines a bit like that.... Great for lighting fags though!!
I now have fitted a designated socket fitted out of sight, under the dash.. Keeps the sat nag wire out the way... comes out here, just below the dial pod on the a pillar...

Just sticking out from dash edge.
Tucked out the way when not in use.. Pull out when wanted!

thanks!
Not a big fan of trailing wires...
Ran a spur off the cig, radio, mirror loom.. Socket under the steering wheel behind the panel under the cowl, plenty of slack on the charger wire to pull out when needed & stick the nav to the window just above my gauge...
Just a thought... Some sort of leisure battery fitted??
