    Hi, I bought a bluetooth transmitter for my car, but every time I connect it to the cigarette lighter socket, a fuse in it burns, what is it, the socket may be damaged?

    If the fuse is good without the transmitter, then probably not. The lighter itself works? Maybe something fell into the socket and plug
    it does.

    Is the cigarette lighter fuse blown? Is it in the transmitter?

    The cigarette lighter socket probably works because I connected the navigation, I was driving 200 km on it and it did not discharge, i.e. something was charged, but the diodes did not light up on the charger and on the winder. Such a strange thing. Fuses burn at the transmitter

    First, check that the socket itself is working properly. Ideally - only the original lighter, because it is a device with a large power consumption.
    It is also good to check the voltage on the socket, whether it is stable and full. You have to use a voltmeter here.
    Also check the condition of the contacts - shine a flashlight into the socket and check visually if there is simply corrosion on the contacts, if the contacts are bent, etc.

    If the socket works, the original lighter will heat up, and other devices will work - then everything is working on the installation side of the car.

    The fault lies with the transmitter, since a short circuit occurs after connecting this part of the circuit. It does not necessarily have to be a working device.

    If you do not have the ability and skills to check the condition of the socket in the car yourself, just go to the car electrician.
    Lighter sockets are not eternal either. Contacts corrode, cable fittings loose, etc. Sometimes it requires inspection, repair or even replacement.

    Please advertise defective transmitter.

    Practical, the fault is always on the side of the plug, I have already dealt with a few such cases. It often happens that you put the plug in and it's ok, you turn it slightly to the left, right and the fuse in the car. Car sockets, as long as they are original and nobody has put anything into them (small coins often fall in), are almost immortal.

    This is the case that in the car there is only a lighter plug (no coils, only rubber) and I can not check on the original lighter, but no thanks for your help, I already know where I am standing with a moment of free time I will try to deal with my mouth greetings

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around a Bluetooth transmitter that causes a fuse to burn when connected to a car's cigarette lighter socket. Users suggest checking the functionality of the socket and the transmitter, as well as inspecting for potential short circuits. It is recommended to verify the voltage stability and the condition of the socket contacts, as corrosion or debris can lead to issues. The original lighter should be tested to confirm the socket's operational status. If the socket is functional, the problem likely lies with the transmitter itself, which may have a short circuit.
