On the past two VW's I've owned('74 Dasher, '94 Jetta) the cigarette lighter and radio were on the same fuse. So I'm guessing check the radio fuse if not sorry, don't know what to tell you except check all the fuses to see which one is blown (it will probably be a 10 amp). The fuse box on a 97 VW Jetta is located on the driver's side below the steering column. The cigarette lighter fuse is located on top of the relays and the relays are located above the fuse box which makes it very difficult to access. I took apart my dash (below the driver's steering wheel) to access it and found that there are 2 clips located on both sides of the fuse box (on the sides near the #1 and #22 fuses). When you lift the clips up (mine are white clips), you can then lift the fuse box up over the hooks and then bring it down. That SHOULD allow you to access the top of the relays where the 15 Amp fuse is located without removing the dash cover like I did. They are not easy to see even if you know where they are suppose to be. The good news is it only took me about 15 minutes to remove and replace the dash if you have to go that route!

hey dude look at the fuse box on the ends you will see a white clip on both ends pull them out and lift the fuse box and pull it will allow the fuse box to come out. On the top of the fuse box you will see the blown fuse for the cigarette lighter. It will be the white 15 amp in the middle of three. Replace the fuse, carefully re-seat the fuse panel and clip it back in.

I have a 2002 Lincoln Continental and both the cigarette lighter and auxiliary phone charger radar detector outlets went out. The owner's manual is generic. Which fuse should I check?

If it is the ashtray cigarette lighter, it would be the number 14 fuse which is a 15 amp fuse. This is true only if the set up for the '02 model is the same as for the '97. I have an 02 continental. I can't figure out the fuse for the center consul's cigarette lighter and phone aux fuse number either. But for the cigarette lighter by the ashtray, it's fuse #14 and uses 20A.
