    What car is it and what fuses did you check? There's usually more than one fuse box.

    Is it the grande punto or the older one that came out in late 1999?

    Have you checked where they joined the wire at the cigarette lighter?

    The fuse for the cig lighter is under the bonnet, the row of small fuses on the left, the top one.

    I checked them but I'll double check again, if the fuse is good I don't know what could be wrong? Surely if the wire shorted or anything it would blow the fuse?

    Did you check it with a meter or just eyeball it?
