c3 fusebox

I have a c3 stop n start, 2 months old, the fuse
box in the glove compartment has no relationship
to the hanbook!
there are only 2 fuses fitted, the positions in
the handbook show different values to whats
fitted.

I am looking at there because the cigar lighter
has stopped working, but both fuses are intact.
the handbook says it shares fuse with digital
clock etc, this is still working.

Any ideas where to look for the problem?

Is this two months from being first used or just two months in your
ownership, if the former you should be contacting your nearest dealer!

I assume that you have established that there is in fact no volts at
the lighter housing/chassis terminals - plus at the centre contact
(IIRC) that can be seen when the removable part is pulled out - as
it's not un-common for fag lighters to fail due to heat damage or
deposits on internal contacts.

Failing that, it will be a case of tracing the wiring back to a point
were a the supply voltage is present. Probably a job for an
auto-electrician.

i had a phone charger plugged-in, the end came
unscrewed where the fuse is & shorted out the
contacts, i asked here first, cause its a lot of
trouble going to a mai dealer.

fuse-box, he said there is an other fuse-box
