So I was using a friend's FM transmitter so she could play some of her tunes while I was driving and when I pulled the transmitter out, the bottom piece of the transmitter somehow unscrewed and got stuck in the cigarette lighter socket. I instantly tried to pull it out and I saw sparks... So I pulled over and shut the car off. Then took the metal piece out. However, the cigarette lighter wont work now... The rear sockets still work though... Could this be the fuse problem from the back of the trunk? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.

 

most likely u just blew a fuse

:l

ive done it twice (pennies falling down the shaft of the cig lighter)

 

thanks, that's what I think it is too... but where is the fuse? I checked the fuses (88 or 87 I believe) according to the white fuse chart in the trunk and they all looked good to me... should I just check them all?

 

Mine's been blown out since I've owned the car...The metal pieces/sockets in all my outlets are completely loose, if I try to unplug anything it pulls the socket with it. So is it a fuse or the fact that all the sockets are loose?

 

I never thought the socket might be loose, because everything else works fine. I will double check and let u know. Thanks for ur replies!
