The cigarette lighter fuse in the Lincoln MKC is located on the right side of the luggage compartment. Open the knob, pull down the fuse box cover, and refer to the paper diagram on the back of the cover to locate it.

I recently encountered a cigarette lighter issue while helping a friend repair his Lincoln MKC, and it took quite some effort to locate the fuse. The cigarette lighter fuse is usually hidden in the fuse box. In the Lincoln MKC, it's typically located on the driver's side, under the left footrest area, with a small black cover that can be lifted to reveal it. The exact position is usually marked in the vehicle manual or on the diagram on the fuse box cover, possibly labeled as CIG or Fuse 23, with a 15-amp rating. If the cigarette lighter isn't working, first turn off the ignition and power to avoid electric shock. Then, open the cover and look for the diagram—the fuse labeled with the cigarette lighter symbol is the one you need. If it's blown, buy a new one of the same specification and replace it. Avoid using a fuse with a higher amp rating, as it could cause a fire. For safety, wear gloves when handling. If you're unsure about the location, searching online for an MKC fuse diagram can provide a reference. After a few years of driving, wiring can deteriorate, making fuses more prone to blowing, so regular checks are best to prevent issues.
