Checked all the fuses under the bonnet, all ok.

Is there another fuse box before I start dismantling things?

Check the socket itself, they're not the most reliable things :!: I've just changed one in my Fiesta van, and recently changed one in the Focus :(

Cheers people, I assumed it was cigarette lighter socket but now I think about it there's no ash tray ;-)

I'm pretty sure that the actual sockets are the same either way, they'll both give you power for accessories anyway :mrgreen:
