Mona-vie 1st Gear July 30, 2011 Share July 30, 2011 If you want it cheap, you can go to Sim Lim Tower. Lots of them. Autobacs has them as well but its more expensive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeobh 4th Gear July 31, 2011 Share July 31, 2011 Yes, I find many young people just don't have the understanding of basic economics and convenience to save time which means money or they just have all the time and alot of disposal income to throw.

5936 1st Gear July 31, 2011 Share July 31, 2011 Guys, change once only please, and use same ratings. if still blow, some thing has shorted. Change to higher ratings may result in more damages and maybe fire. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeobh 4th Gear July 31, 2011 Share July 31, 2011 Right always replace fuse with the same rating. If the draw is more than the recomened amp always check for bad grounding, poor contact or intermittent short. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yuan 6th Gear July 31, 2011 Share July 31, 2011 (edited) You meant you can't even change a fuse yourself???? For my case, the fuse portion is pretty complicated. I ever bought a new fuse from DIY shop and replaced the faulty one but still can't work. End up, when checked by workshop, it is not just the fuse. The cables connected beneath it had to be replaced too. In order to do that, you got to remove the whole cigarette compartment out. And since I often go to stockist to get my parts for servicing, I might as well go back there for the fuse and the cables.

Daim2711 Neutral Newbie September 13, 2014 Share September 13, 2014 Hi, total noob here having problem with burnt cigarette lighter fuse. Need to replace fuse. Since this thread started 3 yrs ago, just wondering if I can still go to those places like simlim/autobacs/daiso imm to purchase those fuses in a pack kind? Or any other place? Hope to DIY instead of going to mechanic. Any help on this matter greatly appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daim2711 Neutral Newbie September 13, 2014 Share September 13, 2014 (edited) The thing is it's not only the cig lighter that is faulty. How it became faulty is my mom inserted a defective mobile charger into it and the whole thing tripped. Now the radio and side mirror controls are dead. Maybe all 3 are in the same circuit. Has anyone encountered this? I can't really order online as shipping will take a few days I suppose. And going to the workshop for a fuse change is something I want to avoid unless really after I replace fuse, still no change. So the only option I have now is to go to local spare parts shop. Any places to recommend? Especially ones that open on Sundays? I hope it's quite easy to replace, as in find the fuse box which is hopefully somewhere under the dashboard, my car is suzuki apv, locate the burnt fuse and then replace it with one that is identical in type and rating. Any chance that the above procedure is too complex for a noob? Will I render my car totally tow-worthy should I somehow plug out the wrong fuse?
