In this video, you will see where the fuse for the cigarette lighter is located on a Volkswagen Golf, which is the first component to check if it suddenly stops working. As shown, it is found in the fuse box inside the cabin, behind the left panel of the dashboard on the driver's side, and it is the third fuse from the penultimate row.
