I just replaced mine on Ford Fiesta Zedec. £5 from Halfords. Very easy but after I replace it I realized it was only the fuse. All I needed to do is to change the fuse and not the whole cigarette lighter.
Hey friend. 👋 Where did you get the 12v auxiliary power outlet like the one you have. I'm over in the states and can't find one to fit my 08 Versa. Thanks cheers
I'm no expert but I find it best to try and rip it off with your hands, this let's you know how much resistance its putting up so you can be careful with bits. Usually the clips will just pop out without much hassle tho, just check for screws on the of chance.
Just bought a new car and got the same replacement, but dont have that orange plug! Previous lighter was smaller prongs so had a white plug to connect the wires, does anyone know what the orange one is called? Its impossible😂
Yeah you just popped the fuse probably. I did the same with a 5 pence piece. On my 12 plate Fiesta I found that my fuse was behind the glove box and was a little yellow 20A Blade fuse. Can't remember if it was a mini blade or micro blade
Not a cigarette lighter, that is only for a USB/power port, I have spent hours trying to find how to replace this USB port with an actual cigarette lighter..no luck.

A smarter person would check the fuse first.
@@robertbutler8004I learn from the comments

How do you get the green sleeve off the halfords lighter??? You left that bit out lol
How come you have to take the trim off first. Can I not just pull the socket and cable through the hole and then connect the new socket?
There's a tool you can use to remove it without taking the whole trim off
The first thing you should do is check and remove the fuse. Then there is a tool you can use to pull the socket out with. No need to remove any trim.
What's the tool called?
I wish you showed the part where you actually plug it in. Great video tho thanks man
thank you! I'm gonna fix mine right now
I could almost understand what he was saying....Still a good video for those that may have this type console.
Couldn't understand most of what he said 🤨
@@blackadder1415 Not me, about idiots especially.
What’s the easiest way to take off the trim without damaging anything?

Will this work for 2013 sonic
I have a 2010 Honda Civic. The socket is in the lower part of the dashboard. I don't even see which panel to remove.
Hey thanks for this video , means alot , why keep all this knowledge to urself lol , thanks again bruh

I dropped a penny in mine an it started sparking an now it doesn’t work
You probably need to replace the fuse.

Yea I replaced the fuse an it works fine I thought I fried it though cuz it was sparking like crazy lol
Thanks 🙏
Wtf I have a toyota yaris and mines never went in properly one of the hardest bastards to install
Why does the shift lever say 12345R instead of PRNDL?
American eh!
Paul Dunne Im joking 😂😂 I’m a rare 4% of America who can handle their stick
Blur Ice I’m confused my car says PRNDL? Why would there be numbers and a random R? That literally makes no sense
@@Liives. I- ...are you serious?
@@gavinlewis3045 yeah that literally makes no sense I just came to the conclusion it has something to do with the manufacturer
I Think,
English accents make me extremely Angry💀
Easy any car 2018,, you have never seen a Fabia, not so simple lol

@@bradysawyer3528 My brother rewired it to an actual cigarette lighter socket, and replaced and increased the amps on the fuse...I think to 20amps.
@@davidg6921 do you know how? I can’t find any vids or anything on how to do it
