NEED HELP electrical problems
need help with this. its a electrical problem. i tried to install a cigarette lighter.
because the original one was ripped out by the previous owner. but anyways
connected the wires and turn the key. there is still no power to it. so i checked the
fuse and the fuse is blown. so i replace that and try it again. the fuse blows again.
i need help to figure this out. and the hazard switch/button broke into pieces while
taking the trim panel off. and the turn signals do not work. i was wondering if i get
another hazard switch would the turn signals work??? oh and the headunit doesn't
work either. the turn signal and the radio worked before i started to replace the
cigarette lighter. its like one problem leading to another. any information of helpful
thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

check you wires man, that power wires hitting a ground, or ou may have it spliced somewhere that touching a ground, however our blowing the fuse triple check how you have it wired.

Re: (racingcrx)
I would say that the turn signal is linked to the hazards. Sometimes the signals in my moms volvo stop working. If you turn the hazards on and off again then the signals will work. If you replace the broken hazard switch, chances are that your signals will work.
As for the cigarette lighter, smoking is bad so why bother installing a new one? haha only kidding. Some cars have accessories on one "circuit" and if it is an after market radio, maybe the PO pulled out the cig lighter because he was having the same problem due to improper wiring?

PO = Post Office or Previous Owner. Or both, if you bought the car from your mailman.
What year Accord is this? On my '99 the hazard switch (with clock) cost only about $20 new from the dealer, though that was about seven years ago. And which trim piece did you break?
Have you tried uninstalling the cigarette lighter to see if things work right?

Re: NEED HELP electrical problems (Heat)
its a 96. 4 door f22 with abs. i dont think the abs matters. but the trim piece that
goes around the shifter and around the headunit with the hazards on the top left
and the clock in the middle. and the right side is blocked off. yes the cigarette light
is uninstalled and it doesn't work. where did you get these parts cheap at? i looked
up majestic honda and thats the prices they listed.

you need to ground the wiring for the cig lighter properly, thats why its popping the fuse. and the hazard button is linked to the signal relay, so you have to replace it
