2000 volvo s70 cigarette lighter won't work

The cigarette lighter on my 2000 Volvo S70 doesn't work. I already tried replacing the #30 fuse (20 amps), but the lighter still doesn't work.

Someone told me that there is another fuse behind the dashboard, but I cannot find it. Can you tell me where the fuse may be and what type of fuse it is?

Or, if you think this could be another problem.

Many thanks,

    Thanks for your response. The radio in the car is a regular volvo radio. There is a CD changer in the trunk though. One volvo dealer told me there is supposed to be another fuse undre the dashboard beside the #30 fuse. Have you heard about that?


    Thanks,

    Greg

    I tried that and it did not work. I am giving up for now and might having it repaired. Thanks a lot for your help,

    Do you have an aftermarket stereo installed. as the radio is usually on the same fuse. they may have taken the power from it to power the radio.

I don't own a volvo so no. Does the cd changer work ?

If not then that fuse needs to be replaced. as your dealer was kind enough to give you a hint (check the fuses on each side of the #30 fuse). and replace if necessary.

Does Volvo cigarette ligher socket accept standard chargers?

Check the fuse in the car charger, and try in another car. The manual with should show where the fuse location. (because it worked befor you charged it,sounds like the car cord fuse is blown or the cord is defected)

2000 volvo s70 cigarette lighter won't work

test the lighter socket itself by putting a everyday common voltage tester or "multi-meter"in it. place the positive wire on the tester to the center of the socket and the negative to the side of the socket. if no voltage reading, keep the positive where it is and move the negative probe on your tester to a new location that you "know" is a negative like a screw on the door jam area. ( find an unpainted surface"). if you get a reading now then you know the negative on the socket is not connected somewhere in the path. do the same with the positive..... good luck.
