cigarette lighter ring of green light not working

Featured Replies

the fuse blew for the 12v rails (probably because I had a 12v to usb plug that fell apart when I tried to unplug the ****tly made piece of crap and spark were flying, then I had to use rubber gloves + tweezers to remove the debris). The fuse was replaced, but the ring of light (which looked pretty cool) is no longer lighting up. 

 

shouldn't a fuse changed fixed that?

Easy fix? Green ring looked nice in the dark.

I'm missing this light too. I'm not sure how to access it, but hopefully it's a matter of lifting out the ash tray and popping the panel under it. My 12V socket is working, but I the bulb should be on a different fuse to the socket as the socket is rated for 180 W, which would be a totally unsafe power level for the bulb circuit.

It is on a different circuit otherwise it would be lit up all the time.

The bulb could quite easily be on the same circuit as the socket. If it's wired in parallel it'll only draw as much current as it needs itself. It's almost certainly switched by the BCM using MOSFETs so the two circuits are isolated from each other.
