Why is the Q5L cigarette lighter not working?
1 Answers
Reasons why the Q5L cigarette lighter is not working: Due to prolonged use, repeated insertion and removal can cause the spring clip to loosen, resulting in the cigarette lighter not receiving power. Another possible reason is that repeated plugging and unplugging, along with improper use, may cause a short circuit in the wiring, burning out the fuse. Below is additional information: 1. Cigarette Lighter: A component found in all cars, designed to provide a flame source for smokers. The power supply is typically 12V DC (may vary by model), with the central spring contact as the positive pole and the side clips (ears) as the negative pole. It is directly connected to the car's battery, sharing the same current and power specifications. 2. Car Inverter: It is recommended to use a split-type car inverter, with the appliance power limited to below 150W, ensuring the output current does not exceed the battery's current. A cigarette lighter socket is an electronic device similar to a multi-outlet power strip for household use, connecting to the car's power supply via a plug and providing multiple cigarette lighter ports. This is particularly useful for car owners who frequently use electronic devices in their vehicles. Each multi-outlet cigarette lighter socket has a maximum output power and current capacity. The total current of the car appliances used must not exceed these maximum values to ensure the safe and proper functioning of the multi-outlet cigarette lighter socket. This is a crucial safety indicator.
