Hay I need your help I drive a 97 Dodge Dakota V6 sport and I am having some problems with my cigarette lighter outlet I've checked the fuse the fuse is fine my problem is that it works it's just so finicky to the point where it's not worth using ...
🙁
If it works but it's just finicky, pull out the fuse. Get a piece of fine grit sandpaper and clean the power outlet side walls (ground points) and the bottom center terminal (power terminal) and then vacuum out the debris.
It's probably not working consistently because of corrosion/crud that has built up over the years inside there.
you can buy replacement sockets too
