hey guys,

i just picked myself up an '07 VZ Ute, i had the same problem.
cigarette lighter plug in the console had no power,

checked the fuse for cigarette lighter which was all ok.

i then referred to the owners manual and found there is another fuse which controls all accessories, seems weird i know but if you check the other 20 amp fuses i found the "accessory" fuse was broken. replaced it and now cigarette 12v all working sweet.

old thread, but i didnt see a solution,

hope it helps someone out.

Thanks man!! Checked it just then and thats the problem. The autoelectrician wanted $100 just to look at it, and to take the console apart, so i've been without my charger for 3 months haha.

Fuses are under the steering wheel

Replacement fuses are readily available from any Auto Parts supplier, 'Cheapy $2' shops (as they are often referred to), some Supermarkets, many Service Stations.

Hi,

I just had the same problem. The "Cigar Lighter" fuse was OK, the "Acc. Socket" was blown. All fixed now.

Thanks

I joined this forum just to thank you for the advice to check BOTH fuses when the socket is dead. When the lighter fuse checked out ok I thought I was up for a nasty expense but, thanks to this forum, I can charge my phone on the run again already for the cost of a new fuse. Who would have thought??

Direct from Wikipedia -

"The VZ Commodore sedans were superseded by the VE Commodore range in August 2006, whilst the Wagon & Ute ranges lived on for almost another year. Ute production ended in August 2007, whilst the last wagon rolled off Holden's Elizabeth plant line on September 6, 2007"

I have the last if the vz'ds in my possession, super car indeed, saying 07 to a mechanic they automatically think it's a ve lol I think it's funny
