Cigar lighter not fiunctioning
Cigar lighter won't work, no power to it. Fuse is good, connections are good, light bulb works but no power to lighter. Any ideas? Taced wires and nothing?? Am stumped... 2010 Range Rover MkIII Autobiography Super Charged (Idris)

I'm afraid I cannot help, but I find your post wonderfully cultured in that you refer to the item as a 'Cigar' lighter not a cigarette lighter. Hurrah. Fingers crossed you are able to light up your Montecristo soon.... Thumbs Up Monsieur Le Grenadier

I've not been everywhere, but it's on my list.....

Okay okay enough with the smoking stuff... I need it as a power point (12 volt power source) smoking a cigar in a vehicle is just wrong... Around a camp fire with Scotch or Wiskey yes but a car? Naw, that's just not right. 2010 Range Rover MkIII Autobiography Super Charged (Idris)

A multimeter will show you exactly what the issue is in no time at all. If you don't have access to one we could start a guessing game.

I'll go first .....

Bad earth on the lighter circuit. (Not the illumination). If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!!

Sorted... Ground wire was cracked at the crimp in the plug... Probably like that from factory. 2010 Range Rover MkIII Autobiography Super Charged (Idris)
