So my fuse blew on me last night driving home and the dash lights as well as the tail lights are out. I replace the fuse and it automatically blows. My dumbass didn't disconnect the battery. So I do it correctly and everything works fine. Now my turbo timer comes back to life after taking out carpet seats, ect... Whatever. My cig lighter dosen't work now. It actually went out before the light issue. I googled it a little and haven't got anything I think is useful. As far as stereo, I have an aftermarket stereo, and a few wires exposed that I'll tape up, but I'm a little baffeled on the whole illum light + and -. I'll light that firecracker when I come to it. As I said before, my cigarette lighter dosen't work and I would like to get it fixed. I guess this is prepping for doing this. I will run a multimeter on it as well as tape all exposed wires and check/change fuses. If there is something other than what I've posted, then please post prior issues/solutions

My question is: Where is this fuse at for my cig lighter and how is it labled? I haven't checked under the dash, but I will as soon as I post.

Mods: Please delete this waste of cyberspace. I apologize for asking a dumb question I answered by simply checking

The fuse for the cigarette lighter is under the dash, I think it's 15 amps.

While you're working on electrical you may want to install a quick connect to the cigarette lighter to make removing/installing the center console easier.

What problem are you having with the illum. wires?
 
I resolved this 3-4 minutes after posting. My lazy ass decided to post before I went to check it out. Its labled and was indentifiable. The fuse for the cig lighter as well as the tail lamps/dash lights was bad. I'm all good now. ty
 
Haha great.
I always keep extra fuses in the glove compartment just in case.
