How to Fix a Broken Car Cigarette Lighter Socket?

[JamesonRose]

Reasons and solutions for a broken car cigarette lighter socket are as follows: 1. Check for poor contact issues. If unused for a long time, poor contact may occur. Try turning the cigarette lighter plug a few times or unplugging and reinserting it. 2. If the cigarette lighter fuse is blown, replace it with a new one. If the damage is caused by misaligned pins in the socket, gently adjust them back into place using a small screwdriver. 3. If the cigarette lighter socket itself is damaged, replace the socket. Additional information about car cigarette lighters: 1. Frequently connecting high-power devices to the cigarette lighter plug can easily blow the fuse, requiring replacement. 2. Refer to the car manual to locate the fuse box, which usually has labeled fuse positions and includes spare fuses. When adjusting the pins inside the socket with a small screwdriver, be careful to avoid grounding, as this can blow the cigarette lighter fuse.
