Cigarette Lighter replacement

never had an issue with an oem lighter socket on any of the SA's that i've owned. i've used radar detectors and phone chargers etc with it. before replacing the socket check the fuse on the accessory plug that you are trying to use. try different plugs and see if any work. if not, oem units are out there.

Mine is kind of flaky too. I cleaned it with a wire brush (take out the fuse first!) like the kind you clean battery terminals with. That helped, but it is still intermittent depending on the contact design of the outlet plug used.

I'll try a cleanup for now.
