Hello. I plugged in a power outlet multiplier to my car cigarette lighter. It stopped working. I think the fuse is blown. I have the diagram on the fuse box cover but there are abbreviations and I can't understand which one I should check. The diagram is attached.

And also if you have any ideas for possible causes, please feel free to let me know.

Ause is too much draw. You cannot plug much into the lighter.

Use a test light to check each fuse, both sides.

You're showing the engine compartment fuse box. I would expect this fuse to be in the dash fuse box.

You're right Wrenchtech. I've found the dash fuse box under the steering wheel. But there is no diagram. I'm trying to find the diagram now.

Yes that's it. And number nine was blown. I've just tried with another 15A and it worked. Thanks.
