Cigarette Lighter Socket Keeps Blowing Fuse

[Hot Air]

i keep having issues with cig lighter socket blowing fuse. Is the socket removable? If so, where can I find a good socket?

The stock sockets do this. Search the forum. This has been covered. Get an aftermarket with 2 wires on the back and install that.

There's a "nut", more like a sleeve, that screws in from the back, onto the liter body.Unplug the wire, and remove the nut.

Is this what causes it to ground out?
