Re: Fuse for cig lighter, and overhead light blown

Knowing whether it is a Firebird or Camaro along with the year would help.

However, if the cig lighter it the type that points toward the ground check to see if a coin has fallen into it.

If the cig lighter is in the dash (points to front of car) then remove the lighter piece and put it in the console for a week or two. See if the fuse continues to pop.
