Fuse for cigarette lighter

[ShortFatBaldGuy]

Hi folks,
Went to use the cigarette lighter on my '09 1100C the other day and it doesn't work. Everything looks fine at the lighter so I figured it has to be a blown fuse. The chart on the fuse box doesn't clearly call out the lighter but there is a fuse labeled "ACC". That fuse looks fine. Is that the right one? Other things to look for if it is? Thanks.

The answer to your question is marked number 14 in the schematic below. It is a 12-volt DC Outlet. They do not call them cigarette lighters anymore.

Pretty sure it's because they can't handle the amp draw or temperature of a cigarette lighter. A 10 amp fuse can only handle a 120 watt load.

Those little fuses are not common either should you run out of “spares”. They are ABN “low profile” fuses. I found them at Amazon:

Could you please let us know what the problem was when you find it?

Good call geohorn.. I found that out myself and ordered a box of fuses WAY Cheaper than the autoparts store.
The guy at the parts store tried to tell me those were the same as the other fuses just had the legs burnt off.
HA.. Old but not stupid !!
While I was at it bought 2 more kits online with the other fuses too. Now Im good to go .
