Has anyone got an easy fix to liven up ciggy socket at position 1 on key. Mines position 2, I use a Blutooth to FM transmitter for music so would like to have it work without the need for ignition on position 2... ?

Thankyou gentlemen, well mine aint, however if yours all are it surely must be an easy one to remedy.. Much appreciated..
Check your fuse listings on the manual - it could simply be a fuse that needs fixing.
To be fair I couldn't find it in the fuse listing - but someone on here may know. Best of luck

No power to cigarette lighter
I dont need this to light up but I do need it to power my sat nav so any thoughts> I took the panel below the glove box out but for the life of me I couldnt see the fuses and I cant see the lighter fuse on the little chart thats located on the panel so any advice would be appreciated

OK, I do have power to it but only position 2 or running, A PITA if I want to listen to tethered tunes whilst parked up.. Based on the comments here though, I am wondering if it hasnt already been modded to only be live with ignition, or the blutooth would run 24/7.. But they cocked it up a bit by taking power from position 2 circuit, when it should be on 1... I will investigate....Check your fuse listings on the manual - it could simply be a fuse that needs fixing.
