Weird charger/lighter issue

Post by petroscf »

Recently I am facing the following strange problem:

The charger/cigarette lighter is working very well when pushed in (in order to use the lighter. I am not a smoker, I am doing this just to check). However, when I insert a 12V car charger, it does not work. Checked this with a couple of chargers (both of which work normally in other cars' chargers.)

Might this mean it's time to find and fit a replacement part?
