    My 1998 grand prix gt has 3 car adapters, Cig lighter, One on passenger side and one on top of the area that holds the garage door opener, sunglasses, etc..
    The only one that works is the one above the other two have no charge at all. I was wondering if anybody knew how I could fix this problem? and where I could get new fuses (if I need them).
    This is the only main problem with my car and I'd love for this problem to be fixed asap ty!

    look inside the socket for surface rust, and use fine sand paper to remove it. if the fuses are ok. if that dont work, take the plug off the bottom of the socket and check for power, if you have power at the plug you need a new socket.

    all fuses have a # on the top of it, replace it with what # is on the old one.
