    My new-to-me 56 Sport 170 is not fitted with a cigarette lighter, just a 12 volt outlet socket. I want to use this to charge my phone, but it's dead, even with the ignition on. I guess the PO has blown the fuse, but where is it? Nothing on fuses in the manual, so I bought o CD workshop manual on eBay. Unfortunately the fuse layout shown for the 3 fuseboxes is nothing like that in my car! Does anyone know where I can find a fuse layout diagram, or even just where the fuse I want to check is?

    TIA

    Mike

    I have spoken to main dealer once about the fuse locations and he told me that when reading the owners manual you should use it backward. Or if in the book it says 3rd fuse left to right, you should go for 3rd right to left. A bit confusing but is working.

    Thanks Kenney and Stoyankolev. I'll do some more exploring in the right hand fuse box.
