Ok, here is a question for you all....when I bought my 94 Grand Am a year ago, everything on it worked. I made the mistake of jumping a small curb with it one day and since then the electronic door locks and the cigarette light stopped working. How and where are they connected to each other? I checked the fuses at the dash and they all look good. Where am I missing something? Thanks
The lighter and locks stopped working on my 95 some time ago, turned out to be a dime in the lighter socket, shorted things out every time i hit a large bump or took a really hard right turn. They both run on the same circuit, if there is nothing in the lighter causing it to short and the fuse is good, there is a problem between the fuse box and where the wire splits.
Well there is nothing in the lighter to short it out and the horn works just fine....so I guess I gotta take a few hours and trace down the wiring. Thanks guys
i had the same problem with my 95 when i dropped a penny in the cig lighter after charging my cell phone. The ONLY option my car has is power locks and they dont work now lol
I had a dime fall into my cigarette lighter and short my locks and of course the lighter. Turned out it was the courtesy fuse that was blown. I can't recall whether or not the interior lights worked, but I bet they didn't. Anyway, after we replaced that fuse everything worked fine. That was months ago. Now my problem is my cigarette lighter is not working because I need to replace the plug itself (the place where the found its home). The inside of the plug just broke up probably from things steadly falling inside of it. I just hope I can find the correct part. The only thing I have found on the internet so far is the electrical connector and that is not broken. I hope everyone was able to get their problems fixed. Bye for now.
