    My cousin, he's a mechanic but I don't speak to him often, serviced my car for me and my cigarette holder hasn't been working since. It didn't bother me at first because I still haven't passed my test but I am ready to take my test now so I want it to work so I'm able to keep my phone charged when commuting. Nobody I knew could tell me what was wrong with it, but I came across your video and checked the fuse for it- low and behold the fuse needed changing. Thank you for this video, it was very informative!

    LOL, i actually thought this was too simplistic an explanation. So it turns out that after removing all the dashboard searching for a cut in the wires, it was the passenger 12V cigarette lighter in the back that had a penny stuck deep inside. Thanks for this.

    need some advice, I have a B5.5 passat wagon with one lighter in the front and two in the back cargo space, I want to set up a dash cam but all of them are always on even when the car is off so if my cam is plugged in it'll kill my battery. How can I get these to not be always on or do I just have to use my front one and plug/unplug it everytime I get in and out of the car? cause I can route the wire all the way from the back and it fits just right which is why I want to use the back lighter in the first place
