Cigarette Lighter: General Description: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Isuzu Axiom. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
When the cigarette lighter is pushed in with the starter switch at either "ACC" or "ON" position, a circuit is formed in the cigarette lighter case to heat the lighter coil.
The cigarette lighter springs back to its original position after the lighter coil is heated.
