Hello everyone,
I've noticed a "slow death" of my 12v sockets in my 2007 Touareg.
What doesn't work - the one in the cigarette lighter, the one next to the shifter, the one in the center console, the one in the back seat, and the front one in the cargo area. What DOES work is the rear one in the cargo area.
The one in the back seat died last year but I just ignored it, plugging the kid's DSi charger in the front one. That socket died last week.
I checked the fuses - the fuse card lists positions in #1, #3 and #5. For some reason I only have a fuse in #1, and it's OK (20A), but just for fun I put 20A fuses in #3 and #5. Also replaced #1 incase it was something I was missing. No difference.
I'm getting no errors and there are no other issues with the car.
Any ideas? I've done a search and nothing comes up with a similar situation. Are these wired in series or in parallel?
