Why is the cigarette lighter in an Audi A6 not working?
1 Answers
The reason the cigarette lighter is not working could be due to contact issues or damage to the cigarette lighter socket. Here are the relevant details: Contact Issues: Due to prolonged use, repeated insertion and removal can cause the spring clip to loosen, preventing the cigarette lighter from receiving power. You can first test it with a household appliance to check if it's functioning properly. Use a multimeter to test the contact surface by setting it to the continuity mode. Damaged Power Plug: Repeated plugging and unplugging, along with improper use, can lead to a short circuit in the wiring, blowing the fuse. Check if there is a 12V voltage present. If 12V is detected, it indicates that the circuit is functioning correctly.
