Where is the cigarette lighter fuse located in the Cadillac CT6?
3 Answers
The fuse for the cigarette lighter is located under the cover on the lower left side of the main driver's center console. Remove the cover to see the fuse box. The steps for replacing the fuse are as follows: 1. Before inspection, turn off the engine and all electrical equipment. 2. Locate the corresponding position and use a small pry bar to lift the protective cover. 3. Do not remove the fuse immediately; first, use a test pen to measure it. If one contact point lights up while the other does not respond, the fuse is likely damaged. 5. Carefully remove the blown fuse with tweezers or similar tools, then secure the spare fuse back in place.
I remember last time my Cadillac CT6's cigarette lighter had an issue, and a blown fuse was the common cause. The fuse is usually located in the fuse box above the driver's footwell, just behind a small panel under the steering wheel. You need to lift that plastic cover, and inside there's a fuse layout diagram. Look for the position labeled 'cigarette lighter'—it's typically a 20-amp fuse. If the fuse is blown, just buy a replacement of the same model and swap it in. But be cautious about the cause—if it keeps blowing, you might be using high-power devices, like a 200W+ vacuum cleaner plugged in there, which can overload the circuit. Regularly checking the electrical system is crucial to avoid breakdowns on the road. Replacing a fuse is simple: turn off the engine, use pliers to pull out the bad one, and insert a new one—don’t yank it forcefully to avoid damaging other wires. It’s wise to keep a box of spare fuses in the car for emergencies, so you’re not left scrambling last-minute.
To deal with the CT6's cigarette lighter fuse, I know it's located in the fuse box on the left side of the steering wheel. The exact position can be checked in the user manual or owner's manual appendix, usually labeled with a number like F31 or similar. If the cigarette lighter stops working, there's an 80% chance the fuse has blown. Use a test light or multimeter to check for continuity—if it's burned out, replace it with a new micro2 type 20A fuse. The cause is often overload, such as plugging in an electric vehicle charger that exceeds the power rating. Safety first—operate after turning off the engine and avoid touching with wet hands. After replacement, test to ensure normal functionality. Additionally, vehicle designs sometimes have compact circuit layouts, so avoid frequent plugging and unplugging of devices to protect the fuse.
