Power Port
Everyone...my cig lighter plug quit working. I use it to power the XM and it gave up the ghost. How do I take it out so that I can replace it?

Are you sure it isn't the fuse?

Yeah...I think it is something inside the outlet...I discovered tonight that if I wiggle it around for aminute or two, it start to work and I let go and its dead. I am thinking it is just wallowd out and won't hold the plug tightly....

IIRC there is some type of tin nut on the back side of it.

How do I access the back side? As in removing the plastic?

I THINK you can reach it by pulling your ashtray.
