In our case, it makes no difference even when the car is running though..The cigarette lighter is only active when the ignition is on, the 12v power outlet is always live.
So in your situation, was it the cigarette lighter (left side) that wasn't working rather than the 12v outlet on the right side?2 separate fuses...I just went through this. Handbook is confusing...look for other front power fuse socket
That's great, I'll give that a go next weekendYes they are separate fuses. The always live 12V is labeled P Outlet 1 in the fuse box. The cigar lighter that is only live when the key is on (where you have no power) is labeled P Outlet 2. Both are 15A fuses.
