Where is the Cigarette Lighter Fuse on the Ford Focus?

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Fuse box

On a Ford Focus MK3, the fuse for the cigarette lighter is located inside the fuse box in the cabin. The fuse box is under the passenger side glove compartment, so to access it, you need to remove the lower part of the dashboard. Remove the red 15 amp fuse using long-nose pliers. Insert a fuse of the same amperage to avoid damaging the operation of the socket. Test the operation of the socket and then close the fuse box.
