Jimmy, Accessing the underside of your cigarette lighter can be easy or simple depending on weather your DeLorean Is an automatic or manual transmission. The manual set-up simply requires you to remove the two Philips head screws at the base of the shift boot trim plate, unscrew and remove the shifter ball and lift the trim plate clear of the shifter. You will now be able to access the connections at the underside of the lighter. If you have an automatic trans this procedure will be much more difficult due to the rather complex remove and replace procedure of the shifter set-up.

When I had some work on the air conditioner, the mechanic forgot to reconnect the lighter. Now it does not work. It worked perfectly before. I could just bring it back to him and have him do it, but I would like to do it on my own to bypass the hassal of bring the car there. Just in case if anyone is wondering, I don't smoke and would never let anyone smoke in my DeLorean. I use the lighter for a power supply for my radar. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Jimmy VIN#15880 [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
