How to Remove a Car Cigarette Lighter?
1 Answers
The steps to disassemble a car cigarette lighter are as follows: 1. Unscrew the outer shell: Some car lighter sockets have a screwed-on outer shell at the back, which can be unscrewed counterclockwise and then screwed back on clockwise. 2. Remove screws: Some car lighter sockets are fixed with screws at the back; simply use a wrench to remove the screws. 3. Remove the panel: Take off the gear shift lever panel, which is held by plastic clips. You can either pry one side up by hand or use a flathead screwdriver to lift it, then remove the entire panel. 4. Remove panel screws: After removing the gear shift lever panel, press the lighter panel door, which will open automatically, revealing two black screws. Use an M4 hex wrench to remove them. 5. Remove the panel box: Pull the lighter's plastic panel box out by hand. When it's about 10 cm out, disconnect the wiring first before pulling out the entire box. 6. Operate the inner and outer rings: The lighter consists of an outer and inner ring. Press the inner ring in during use, and once it reaches a certain temperature, it will automatically pop back to its original position. Then, pinch the outer ring and pull it out.
