Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yesterday I was changing the bulb in the glove box and managed to blow the fuse protecting the interior lighting, alarm going off etc etc. Traced it in the fuse box and replaced. When I came to plug the optimate back in the cigarette lighter socket it wouldn't register on the unit. I subsequently checked the cigarette lighter in the socket and it wouldn't work either. I've checked the fuse that protects the cigarette lighter and its ok. Has anybody an idea of what I might have done, its got me baffled

POST 4Original post

Fuse D5? 15A. If it is intact, all I can suggest doing is unclipping the horseshoe, and see if you are actually getting 12v and earth to the back of the lighter socket.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I'll try that next Richard fuse is ok

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Can anyone help with the horseshoe removal before I go breaking things, can't see anything on search. Checked all the fuses on the board and all are ok

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

sorted, seems I'd loosened the connector block on the cigarette lighter socket when fiddling with the glovebox lamp wires. Thanks all
