Power Locks, Cigarette lighter, and Hatch release not working
Does anybody know what specific fuse controls the Cigarette lighter, power locks and the hatch release? Ive looked at a diagram and cant figure out which one to replace. All of those things stopped working on my way into work tonight and id like to just walk out and pop a fuse in without pulling out each one to figure out which one blew.

Re: Help with fuses.
It is the ACC fuse.
You'll most likely need more than one. Chances are your replacement will also blow, then you'll need to figure out which circuit is shorted out. The most common culprit is the cigarette lighter and/or its wiring. For me, it was the underhood light, just unplugged it and let it be - might check that too if you have one. BTW your horn is also on that fuse

Re: Help with fuses.
Replaced the fuse today and my hatch motor release switch, locks, and cigarette lighter dont work still. Assuming the damn cigarette lighter is bad what would i do to fix it? The problem actually started when i plugged in my phone charger.

Re: Help with fuses.
Well the replacement fuse has not blown yet and all three still do not work..... I really suck at fixing electrical problems so any help is greatly appreciated.

Re: Help with fuses.
Are you sure you replaced the right one? There are 2 ACC fuses under there.
If it worked before you plugged in your phone charger it should just be a matter of changing the fuse out. My 89 is the same way with the ciggarette lighter, if I plug anything into it it will blow the fuse everytime. Here is a link to autozone's wiring diagrams, it is for firebirds but it is the same for camaros

Just scroll down to 91 body wiring cont. and it shows which fuses go where.
