BOTH Cigarette Lighters won't work...

At some point both of power ports went... and I can't for the life of me figure out why. I've looked at every fuse:nothing. Also, I can't seem to figure out which relay could have gone bad. Anybody else have this problem?

thanks for the entertainment dave :D definitely made me laugh!

but have you checked the consoles to make sure it's plugged in? On the backside is the connector inserted into the power outlet. Did someone take your console apart? It could've been someone took it apart, didn't put it back together correctly and then the connectors fell off. check that.

The one in my armrest stopped working when I had the interior lights installed, and I ended up destroying the other one intentionally

. No one smokes in my tC.

the car has a mind of its own and doesn't want you to smoke inside it. sorta like a modern version of the old classic movie "Christine"

I'll ask a related question... does anyone know who carries the funky little fuses scion put under there. I checked the dealer and they don't have it.
