#1: Cigarette Lighter Wiring Help Author: Ferdasyn, Posted: Fri Jun 28, 2013 8:14 am ---- My cigarette lighter socket was intermittent, as well as the plastic ring being broken, then it stopped working altogether so (Which was quite annoying when trying to use satnavs and things) so I investigated.
I'm currently looking at this:
IIRC, that's the same way they were connected (Blue in middle, Green/Yellow on the outside) but not 100%. (I still have the other pieces to fix the plug)
Will I run into any BSI problems or anything if I try to refit the wires to the plug and connect a new lighter?

I did manage to do it without removing the centre console though

I *think* they are, not 100% sure though, It was a few weeks ago when I was last looking at them.

#7: Re: Cigarette Lighter Wiring Help Author: Ferdasyn, Posted: Wed Aug 07, 2013 5:19 am ---- Problem solved! I bought a new lighter assembly off eBay for £17 and repaired the wires, it was grey, blue then green/yellow. Once I had plugged everything in I still had nothing, then I realised the fuse had blown.
After replacing the fuse I now have a working 12V Socket
