Dumb Question - Cigarette Lighter Fuse? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

*Zilverado* · 08-20-2007, 03:25 PM

So I blew the fuse on my cig lighter plug the other day (it's the kind that is inside the ashtray). I was looking for the fuse and could not find one in the fuse block - although I did not pull every single one out.

Should the fuse be in the fuse block or is it in-line somewhere. Also, the plug is wired to be hot all the time - ignition "on" or "off". I like that, but is this stock? If not I guess I should be looking for an in-line fuse.

So, sorry for the silly question, but I thouht I might be able to trace it quickly this way. Thanks.

Check your horn fuse. It's on the same circuit in my 79. It may be the same for yours.
