Default Need help!! cigarette outlet doesnt work...

so i was using a air pump thing (connects to the cigarette outlet) trying to pump my tires today, it was working fine for the first one, then when i got to my second tire, it stopped working and so did the other outlet which has a radar detector connected to it... does that mean i burned the fuse? and if so, how can i check? cuz both of them stopped working... thanks!!!

Most likely you did blow a fuse. Air compressors draw significant current. When I run off-road with my 4WD and use this type of device to air-up after deflating for better traction, I use a a dedicated power line.

Your Z's Owner's Manual shows the fuse box.

Same thing happened to me a while ago. Replaced the fuse and everything was back to normal.
