Glovebox light / cigarette lighter

[malcolm_jamesuk]

Hi all hope u are all well ..... just noticed that the glovebox light does not work - obviously checked the bulb with a battery and hey presto it works.... , ... noticed that the cigarette lighter does not light up also ...? Had a quick look in the fuse box ...unfortunately i do not have an owners manual so i do not know which fuse to check ....at first glance all seems well and i could not see any obviouse blown fuses.... any ideas out there please .... is this common .... ??


Many thanks all the best Malc

I am aware that they only work when the ignition is on ......ta ....... as you can see the main problem is they don't work at all..it's not a huge problem defintely not loosing muck sleep over it.... but it starts to niggle you , then you think " i i'll just have a look at this - then that , before u know it youv'e got screws / bits of car everywhere ...........................i will take a look at the switch on the weekend see if that has anything to do with the glove box light .,, many thanks all the bestto you all.
