Check fuse 26 in your fuse box in drivers compartment.

I'm glad this post was resurrected.
I was thinking of changing out the stock loose cig lighter with a smaller inner diameter cig lighter. That cig lighter at NAPA that someone mentioned will help as a replacement.
I don't smoke but I mainly use it charging phones/iPads and for plugging in my Power Probe III for troubleshooting electrical issues in the dash.

Yes, I wish that I would have seen this topic earlier. Just bought a cigarette lighter type adapter that fits very loosely and huts off after being bumped or wiggled.

Will look into changing. Like the cleaner look and I have the Greg Davis type CDL ****...so that kind of gets in the way too.

Here is a thought...

I prefer to keep Tricky Dick looking as stock as possible. However, I hid my iPhone adapter in the center console cubby.

Could you simply splice into the cigar lighter and run the wires back to the cubby and mount a charging port there?

 

My original USB conversion ports are still going strong. No issues at all and I get compliments on it all the time from LR folks.

I have not missed the OEM cigarette lighter port one bit. I like those newer USB/Voltage Ports.

 

thank you sir.
unfortunately replacing 15 and 26 did not fix the output. i was not accurate in my first post, i measured 0.3/0.4 volts in the outlet so i could conclude that it is not a fuse issue... is the outlet controlled by something else as well?

Did you meter the leads going to the cigarette adapter or just from the unit itself?

 

You mention checking/changing fuses, but did you check voltage at fuse? If you have voltage at the fuse, I'd probably pull the console side panel over far enough to see if wire are connected.

The modification I did to my stock cigarette lighter is rewired to permanent power. Not controlled by the keyswitch.
Used a spare fuse holder inside the fuse box and ran a new wire to it. Now things plugged-in can recharge while parked.
