Why doesn't the Fiat 500 cigarette lighter socket work?

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2024
Part: Cigarette lighter

The cigarette lighter socket of the Fiat 500 stops working when the reference fuse burns out, so it will be necessary to check and replace it. The cigarette lighter socket is located on the central dashboard, near the gear shift. The fuses for the cigarette lighter socket are located in the fuse box inside the engine compartment. The fuses in question are labeled F85 for 15 amps and T91 for 30 amps. To view the fuses, it is necessary to open the engine compartment and remove the cover on the box, locate the fuse using the diagram on the cover, remove it, and insert a new one.
