cigarette

Hi All, Hopefully a quick question :) I don't often use my cigarette lighter but had to use it today, it doesn't seem to stay in when pressed but does heat up if you press and hold it? Are they meant to stay in and pop out when hot? This is on a Pre-FL Mk2 if that makes any difference...

Can a fellow mk2 Owner do me a favour if it isnt too much hassle. Cant you check the above in your car and tell me roughly where it runs. Reason I ask is that I have a cigarette lighter to fit in the car from a mk2 and in the fusebox there is the fuse for it and a wire coming from the...

My rear socket in my Altea has stopped working (front one still works), have found out in manual the the fuse number is 30 but cannot locate in fuseboard under steering wheel. The numbers are SO small it is hard to tell which one it is!! Pleae help someone...........

I use this all the time to charge my phone, the hole, no the lighter :rolleyes: Well I managed to get a 5p stuck down there, which was almost the exact diameter, fished it out, and now it doesn't work Any ideas? :shrug:

Hi, my cigarette lighter has stopped working. The only thing I use it for is my phone charger and it suddenly stopped working so I tested it in a friends car and worked fine! I identified the fuse number as 42 abd ampere = 15 in my Seat Leon FR manual. My question is do i need to go out...

My cigarette lighter works and I plug my sat nav and my phone charger in....thats fine. It doesn't work very well at all when you attempt to light a cigarette with it. Any ideas>

Hi, Just wondered if there was a quick way to get the cigarette socket to deliver power even after the keys are taken out of the ignition, or at least (and this would probably be better) for it to have power when the keys are turned to the first accessory point on the ignition. Rather than...

I've tried searching in the user manual and on here, but could not find out where the fuse location for the cigarette lighter is. Any clues please as my mobile charger has stopped working (and I've checked it in another car and it works fine). Thanks for any help! :(

My lighter was working yesterday, i borrowed my mums sat nav plugged it in and then when i have taken it out the end has come off with the fuse, i have not realised and tried to plug something else in and the fuse on the first one has shattered and my lighter will no longer work. Is this a...

I have the parts here thanks to Dave @ Sere motors, can anyone give me a good pointer as how to fit them without ruining the trim?

I bought my Ibiza last week It is a nice car. but everything is manual on the car only it has got power steering but There is no cigarette lighter on the car which I have never seen.I found the place which cigarette lighter is supposed to be. It is under the radio next to the ashtray. There is a...

I asked this question on a seperate thread, but thought I might get more of a response if i started a new thread The lighter socket in my car wasnt working so i went & got a new one yesterday This socket isnt working either but theres a small light attached to it which lights up the...

Hi Chaps. My cigarette socket is knackered. What can I do to fix it? I want to buy and use a sat nav.

I dont know how i have managed to lose it but would be very grateful if someone had a part number and rough price for a Mk4 ibiza fr Cigarette Lighter. Think i might have vacuumed it up!!??

hey. the cigarette lighter and light aren't working. the fuse has been replaced previously, witha 15amp one. i've checked and its not blown, but just wondering if this is the right amp fuse?? when i press the lighter in, it goes in for a couple of seconds and pops right out again. it gets...

Right this is pretty innocuous, my cigarette lighter is stuck/jammed in the holder! Originally it was out and in the coin tray, but I dropped a 1p coin in the holder by accident, in the process of trying to take out the 1p coin, I saw a “spark” and noise, like a pop/crackle sound. After I...

Hi all, so I've just been to the scrappys today to see if I could take the center console out of a cordoba as mine is busted. Got it all out then discovered someone had just smash some screw tabs off where the heating dial panel is to get it off so its useless. All I managed to get of use is...

Hi guys, After advice from here a few weeks ago regarding hardwiring my Road Angel, I'm going to install a new 12V ciggie socket under the dash. What I need from you very technical people, are the details of EXACTLY what I will need. I'm taking a trip down to maplins later on, can...

So today I was playing around with the bits in my LCR (only got it 2 weeks ago) and for some dumb reason decided to push the cigarette lighter in (even though I don't smoke!). To cut a long story short it has just stayed in and has not popped back out yet. It tried turning off the transmision...

plugged my sat nav in lighter socket today, and there was no power coming from it, so i then tried plugging in the lighter, and still no joy, im thinking it may be a fuse which has gone?? if so where abouts is the fuse? or should i take it to seat to sort out?
