georigg Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 No need to remove battery connection when checking fuses. Sounds like when you were looking at/working on cigarette lighter you probably didnt notice grounding one of the +ve wires which would blow the fuse. Just need to be a little careful when working on the car! For info, the cigarette lighter is NOT powered with the ignition off........did you have the ignition on when working at near it????
