Fuse for Cigarette Lighter
Hi there,
My iPhone charger just disintegrated in the front cigarette lighter and shorted out. The lighter socket must have blown a fuse as it is no longer outputting 12v. Does anyone know where it is fed from as manual is not specific and all fuses I have checked left/right dash and trunk all seem ok.
The other 12v outlets in armrest and trunk are all fine as well.
Any help would be appreciated as I am pulling my hair out (and don't have much!)

There are 4 15-amp fuses, one for each of the Q5's 4 12V cigarette-lighter-type outlets. The fuses reside in the right rear storage compartment, on the bottom. They are in the RED fuse holder and are numbered 1,2,3,4.

there are also two fuse boxes in the front of the car on the right and left sides, open the front driver and passenger door and pry off the panel on the side of the dash and there you go. More fuses
