Where is the cigarette lighter fuse located in the Regal?
2 Answers
The cigarette lighter fuse in the Regal is located in the leftmost cover of the main driver's center console. For some models, the fuse for the rear cigarette lighter is located in the fuse box on the side of the trunk, which can be accessed by opening the flap without having to pull the fuse directly by hand. Below is an introduction on how to use the cigarette lighter: 1. First, locate the cigarette lighter button. This button is a circular one with a cigarette icon (or voltage value). Turn on the cigarette lighter and let it heat up to a level sufficient to ignite smoke. The cigarette lighter will automatically pop out, and a slight sound will be heard when it pops out. 2. Note: Pick up the popped-out side and use the other side to light the cigarette, then gently touch the smoke to ignite the cigarette. 3. The cigarette lighter does not produce an open flame. It is recommended to use the cigarette lighter for smoking while driving.
As a car owner with experience to share, the cigarette lighter fuse in the Buick Regal is typically located in the fuse box under the driver's seat or on the passenger side. This box is hidden near the foot pedals—just gently pry open the cover to see a diagram labeling each fuse number, with the cigarette lighter usually marked as 'CIG' or similar. If the cigarette lighter suddenly stops working, avoid forcing objects into it, as it's likely a blown fuse—often caused by overloading with high-power car devices or a short circuit. I've replaced mine once: first, turn off the engine and remove the key, use a tool to pull out the old fuse, then replace it with a new one of the same amperage (usually around 15-20A, as noted in the manual). The process is straightforward but prioritize safety—avoid touching wires to prevent electric shock or system damage. If unsure of the location, check the vehicle manual or search online for a diagram matching your Regal's year. Otherwise, visiting a repair shop for professional assistance is safer to avoid messing up the circuitry.
