RE: Cigarette Lighter Socket
How did you burn it out? I have the same problem, my cigarette lighter plug is fine but the power outlets are jacked. Mine blew out when I bought a lighter plug for a cb. The lighter plug had a poor design where the positive and negative terminals were too close and in this particular plug were damaged and touching. I learned a good lesson there, don't buy from Strauss they won't even acknowledge my complaint and give me $ to get it fixed and they won't even attempt to fix it and they have a shop on half of the store at this particular location.

I have the same problem too, but sometimes mine will work and sometimes it wont. really weird. i plug my cell phone charger into the dash one and it wont work. so i switch to the one in the center console and it works, and vice versa. i think it stopped working all together now, but havent checked in a couple days. if you find those fuses let me know.

It sounds like a bad connection for you unless they are not on the same circuit. Before my outlets were blown my cigarette lighter plug wouldn't work. After it blew I was digging around in there with a test light and got a light on for the lighter plug so I just bent the terminal in a little and it has been working fine since, just be careful not to touch the + and - terminals if you decide to use a test light and disconnect the battery if you try to adjust the terminal a little that will keep you from arching...

It's funny so many of us have the same issue yet no-one knows of a fix yet. I just put a tester on my 2000 Durango, with the car off the cig puts out 12.2 v, with the car running it puts out 14.4, the other aux outlet AND the one in the rear are dead. Tore the dash apart looking for an in-line fuse only to read in the manual after the fact that Dodge decided to put in a special wiz bang item in the fuse box at the engine to replace all inline fuses.
So, did anyone replace all the fuses in the box at the engine compartment?
