Cig lighter socket loose?

[andysat]

Hi all,whenever i plug anything into the cig lighter i have to jiggle the plug around to make it work,does this mean the wiring behind the plug is loose or the cig socket is 'warped'?-thanks

There are a couple of sizes, (I discovered this when some plugs rattled and others were fine)

If the lighter works, see if you have another gadget to try

Yep, it's a minor difference, but I've bought lighter socket gadgets on my various travels so suffered this annoyance a number of times. Worst case I used a wedge of paper to hold them in place. Check that actual lighter is working first as that'll give you an idea of whether or not you have a wiring problem

Have the same problem with mine had the dealer have a look at it when i first got it but they found no problem,i use a Belkin USB car charger so it maybe on the small size but works well once in the right position

Cheers mate-i have the same-(recommended on here)-it has a green light that flickers as it is pushed in/moved around-its supposed to stay on.
