Accessory Outlets

[Pontiac1976]

Did you check the fuses, or the plug of the GPS is not making contact in the aveo sockets.

We were short on time. What fuses are related to the outlets? Cigarette lighter didn't work either. Tried that to check and make sure the outlet was good. Pushed the GPS plug in and moved it around some to make sure it was in and connected.

First use a test meter to determine if you have 12 volts at the outlet. If you don't have a meter, find the original cigarette lighter and simply plug it in to see if it gets hot. If you get no meter reading (or the cig lighter doesn't get hot) check the fuse for it.

Don't be surprised if the plug to your accessory is not making a good contact. Typically that type of plug will work for a while but become worn in that it no longer makes a good connection.
