Well, it wouldn't tighten; but it loosened.............
So I took it out and couldn't see any reason why it wouldn't tighten.
Put it back in, and.........
it tightened
whatever
thanks

| Post subject: | Cigarette lighter socket |
The cigarette lighter socket in the dash is rattling around and driving me nuts. From feel, there's a 90 degree connector for the wire and the socket seems to just be snapped in. So I figure that I'll pull the fuse, then the wire and just get the socket out of the dash and either add a o-ring or gasket or RTV so it doesn't rattle. Is the socket in fact just pushed/snapped in? And does it just pull out, or is there some trick to getting the socket out? Thanks |

The rear housing of the lighter behind the dash screws onto the front portion of the lighter sticking through from the front of the dash. Reach in behind and take a turn on it while holding the front portion stationary. That should tighten her up. |
