Where is the Corolla cigarette lighter fuse located?
2 Answers
Corolla cigarette lighter fuse is located inside the storage compartment below the steering wheel. Here is the relevant information: 1. Using high-power electrical devices with cigarette lighter: The cigarette lighter fuse is extremely prone to blowing. Generally, cigarette lighters use 15-25A fuses. Since the vehicle voltage is 12V, it is recommended that the power of electrical devices connected to the cigarette lighter does not exceed 300W, and for some compact cars, not exceeding 200W. As for high-power devices like car refrigerators and car air pumps, it's better to avoid using the cigarette lighter for power supply. 2. How to use: The Corolla cigarette lighter is located below the air conditioning control knob and in front of the gear shift. Pull the cover to open it, then press the cigarette lighter. The cigarette lighter will start heating, and when the heating wire reaches the required temperature, it will automatically pop out.
Last time my Corolla's cigarette lighter stopped working, it was due to a blown fuse. The fuse box is located in a small compartment below the steering wheel on the left side - you can see it when you open the door and bend down. The lid has a clear diagram inside, showing that the cigarette lighter fuse is usually a 15-amp one labeled CIG or ACC. When I checked it, I used the small clip to pull it out and saw the wire had burned out. When replacing it, make sure the voltage is correct and don't overload it, otherwise it might blow again. Avoid connecting high-power devices like vacuum cleaners regularly as they may cause overload. The location varies by model - some cars have an additional fuse box in the engine compartment, but the cigarette lighter fuse is usually in the interior one which is easier to handle yourself. However, if you're unsure, it's best to visit a repair shop. Total words: 170.
