Car Forum / Peugeot Cars / April 2007Lighter socket no power
Help! Car is a 1996 406 saloon. since yesterday I have no power to the lighter socket by the handbrake. I've checked it with three separate items, none working at all. Have checked the handbook for fuses, but there are no references to fuses for this socket. So, where do I check next, all advice welcome. Cheers, Ainslie > Help!

The Haynes manual has a "Typical Cigar Lighter" wiring diagram which seems to indicate that it is fuse 1 or 1A in the passenger compartment fuse box. They also say elsewhere that there are two fuse boxes (1 in the engine compartment and the main one in the passenger compartment) and the details of what circuits each fuse protects are on the covers.

If you find the fuse box it should say on the lid which fuse dos what. > If you find the fuse box it should say on the lid which fuse dos what. Cheers for the replies so far. I'll check the fuse box covers in the morning once there's some light. Seems odd though, if there's a fuse you'd expect the handbook to list it, but it's not listed in either of the fuse box listings. Will update in the morning, if anyone has a specific answer let us know please.

Right, I've been out and checked the fusebox covers. No description of which fuse relates to anything. Short of plugging something in and then swapping fuses, has anyone got any suggestions as to how to proceed? >>> If you find the fuse box it should say on the lid which fuse dos what. >> [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > which fuse relates to anything.

Ahem. Yes, fuse 1 did the trick. It is also listed in the manual. Back to school for me :( |
