Where is the cigarette lighter fuse located in the Fit?
1 Answers
The cigarette lighter fuse in the Fit is located inside the fuse box under the dashboard cover. The cigarette lighter itself is positioned below the center console. The cigarette lighter fuse has a current rating of 10A, and if it blows, the cigarette lighter will lose power. When you press the cigarette lighter, it automatically heats up and pops out after 5 to 8 seconds of heating, ready for lighting cigarettes. Common mistakes when using the cigarette lighter include: 1. Not unplugging external devices when starting the vehicle: External devices connected to the cigarette lighter can easily burn out due to the high current surge during startup, especially MP3 players and USB drives. Therefore, it's best to unplug them before starting the car and reconnect them after the engine is running; 2. Not unplugging external devices when turning off the vehicle: Depending on the vehicle's settings, some cigarette lighters remain powered even after the car is turned off, which can lead to unnecessary battery drain if external devices are left plugged in; 3. Wiggling during insertion or removal: Frequent movement when plugging or unplugging can deform the curved spring contacts of the external device's plug, leading to poor contact and intermittent connectivity; 4. Constantly bumping the cigarette lighter plug while operating the car, causing it to become loose.
