In this brief guide, we will cover the main instructions for replacing or repairing the cigarette lighter socket on a Ford Fiesta. First, get inside the vehicle and start by removing the old cigarette lighter socket, replacing it with a new one or installing a socket with a USB adapter.

If the socket still does not work, the issue may be due to its fuse. Open the glove compartment to access the internal fuse box, remove and replace the indicated fuse with a new one (having the same amperage).
