Check the fuse that the cigarrete lighter is hooked up to.
where is the cigarette lighter fuse for x5 bmw located and amps.
An inverter will work great for this and can plug into your cigarette lighter, although it may not have enough amps to run a gaming laptop.
Normally 15 amp max
Most power outlets are fused for 15 amps.
20 Amps. Fuse Position #1 under the Dash.
Try the auxiliary fuses. They're usually 20 amps.
i have a 2001 Chevy Tahoe 5.3 fuel injected vortex and my cigarette lighter keeps blowing out. i replaced it with 15 amps fuses but it keeps burn it out. i just want to no if that the right amps for this car
Fuse no 23 20 amps
Approximately ten amps available at the lighter's socket. Ohm's Law thus gives 12V x 10A = 120 Watts...
According to the 1996 Ford Explorer Owner Guide : ( # 17 is a 15 amp fuse for the cigarette lighter ) * IN the drivers end of the dash , the fuse panel cover is visible with the drivers door open
The fuse box panel typically identifies the fuses on the back side (my '01 Max has a sticker on the backside of the panel that shows which fuse is for the lighter).Another suggestion:On a 2008 Nissan Altima, the blown cigarette lighter fuse was located in the driver side panel labeled SOCKET- 15 amps.
