Changan cigarette lighter fuse is located behind the front storage box on the passenger side. Functions of the cigarette lighter: Lighting cigarettes, allowing you to smoke even when you don't have a lighter. Charging devices, using the DC power from the cigarette lighter to charge devices like dash cams. Charging mobile phones, even when the engine is turned off. Precautions for using the cigarette lighter: Do not overload when charging with the cigarette lighter. Avoid using substandard car products. The cigarette lighter socket should not be left exposed for long periods to prevent poor contact, failure, or short circuits caused by foreign objects entering.

The cigarette lighter fuse in a Changan car is usually hidden in the fuse box inside the cabin, mostly in the area below the lower left corner of the dashboard or behind the glove compartment. Open the cover to see a row of small fuses, and you need to find the one labeled CIG or with a cigarette lighter symbol, typically a 15-amp fuse. I've replaced it myself once—first turn off the engine and disconnect the negative terminal of the battery to prevent short circuits, then use small pliers to pull out the blown fuse and replace it with a new one of the same amperage before testing. If you can't find the location, don't panic—check the fuse layout diagram in the user manual or search online for a model-specific diagram to clarify. After replacement, avoid plugging in high-power devices, such as large chargers, as they may cause the fuse to blow again.

Locating the fuse for the Changan cigarette lighter is quite straightforward. It's housed inside the interior fuse box on the driver's side, typically found near the dashboard under the steering wheel or around the glove compartment on the passenger side—easy to spot once opened. The fuse primarily safeguards the circuit from overload to prevent fire hazards. A frequently used cigarette lighter fuse may blow, often labeled as CIG. From experience, I'd advise ensuring the engine is off for safety before any operation, and checking the fuse for black spots or a broken filament to confirm if it's blown. When replacing, always match the amperage (e.g., standard 15A) and use a multimeter to test continuity for reliability. If fuses blow repeatedly, inspect the cigarette lighter socket for potential short circuits or foreign objects causing abnormalities—don't overlook this.

The Chang'an cigarette lighter fuse is usually located in the cabin fuse box, behind the small door on the left side of the dashboard. To identify it, check the diagram on the inside of the cover or the cigarette lighter label in the manual, such as the fuse marked with "CIG". If the fuse is blown, replace it with a new one of the same amperage after turning off the power to avoid risks. If you can't handle it yourself, it's better to take it to a repair shop for hassle-free service.
