Replacing femail lighter insert for a 2006 m35x Infinity on front console

adf

As any earlier answers there is fuse 23 and 25 however there is also a fuse behind the lighter which is not replaceable. You can use the factory replacement or the hole it's too big for aftermarket. Hope this helps

theses are 2 different fuses # 34 and # 37 under steering column
#34 is 15 a # 37 is also 15 a

not sure on the model of your car but most lighter are installed the same way. you will need to gain acess to the rear of the lighter, you may need to remove panels to get to rear, then you will need to remove power connection to lighter. this will be a plug that slides off, and then theres a nut that screws onto the rear of the lighter socket you will unscrew it as you hold the front off the lighter. the other style would be pop in, this is where theres no nut but rather it pops in and locks,

Check this fuse in the box under the hood.

I didn't see the cig lighter mentioned in my online resource, but with my experience on GM vehicles, the under dash driver's side fuse box usually has a cig lighter fuse listed. If not, then you'll have to get a fuse tester and test each and every fuse until you find the burnt out one.

If the fuse is not burnt out, there may be a broken wire behind the console.

Check fuses inside AND under the hood..... "cig lighter" is 15 amp...... "power" is 25 amp under the hood. Also check your power socket in the console to see if coins have gotten in there. There was a penny in mine and I blew 3 fuses before I learned to check that from another forum. Plucked it out with some gum on the end of a stick!

hi to remove the lighter ease of the crome retaining ring around the lighters edge you may have to use a flat ended screwdriver one off you lighterand connection will come out
