My cig lighter socket thing don't work and my horn has stopped working?
Any one know which fuse it is?
Tryed finding pred's fusebox thread but can't find it :(

Also is there anyway i can bypass the fuel cuttoff? Twice this week iv'e gone over a bump and the cars cut off. Ride is abit stiff from coilovers.

Thanks :)

This should help

You can find the fuse diagrams within your handbook. If you can't be *rsed to have a look, then see below ;)

INTERIOR FUSEBOX (located under the glove box, its the panel with a hole in it and just flips out)

that sounds a bit high for the horn and cig lighter mine went on my saxo and it was only a 20 amp fuse.

Probably the reason it went tbh if its only got 20amp fuse then you can't get the correct current through before blowing fuse, on the flip side if you had say a 40amp fuse then too much current could pass through damaging the wiring before fuse blew to protect things

It might be because I'm on my iPhone now but I can't see any pics above!

Checked laptop. Yeah the pics are there.

I had the same problem on my vts. The fuse looked like it had completely melted. Plastic and everything! I'll have to keep an eye on that.

I know this is about a month ago, but commenting because of relevancy - my F5 fuse has also just blown, and there is a 20a fuse in the socket. I have an open scandal (the large electric sunroof one).

And your question is...?

Or is this just for our information?
