Yesterday I wired up a cigarette lighter into my corsa B as it didnt have one, I guess I need to stick a fuse in as well. Is that the case? If so can anybody help with the lighter symbol on the fuse board cover or the location of this fuse that I need to stick in?
THanks

Should have a fuse in it really, where did you wire it to?

if you use the standard wiring, it should already be fused with other wires iirc..
cant remember which though

Yeah if the wire was already behind the ashtray then dont worry because its already fused in the fusebox. If youve wired it straight to the battery (which ive seen done) then you really need to put a fuse in it

If you've used the standard wiring it'll be the same fuse as your speedo

My mistake, I think the actual cigarette lighter element part is bust as it doesnt stay compressed in, but plugged my charger into the socket and it lights up so am good to go!
