So a while ago, i bought some LED's and wired them to my cigarette lighter. Stupid me didn't buy 12v LED's so when i turned them on, it blew my cigarette lighter. I just bought a car charger for my ipod and i forgot my cigarette lighter didn't work. I checked to see if i blew the fuse, but couldn't seem to find a blown one. There were a few fuses that i couldn't get out, but idk if they were blown.

Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks guys!
 
sorry i cant see the LEDs blowing the fuse as they run 2-4v its the resistors that allow it to run on 12v.

chances are you just blew the lights. if the fuse is fine remove the lighter and plug on the back check the terminals for a voltage. if the voltage is fine then id say its the lighter itself thats burnt out. if not check all the fuses. the fusebox itself is normally run off one line from the battery this is also normally fused so if it went youd have next to nothing working
