It might be the wire? Idk. I only consider it because I blew an extension cord using a space heater in my garage. (Shameful, I know, but I was trying to keep some goddamn tomato plants warm while I was tinkering.) I thought it was rated high enough but ended up tripping the GFCI on the circuit. The heater is fine, outlet was fine, but the extension cord would trip the circuit when I would plug it back in even without the heater attached.
I’d probably drive myself mad looking for anything melted if I blew mine in my Subaru.
Got a couple dash bulbs burned out and god dammit i don’t want to take the damn thing apart again.
That’s basically where I am. I had just put it all back together recently after an A/C repair and was like “you’ve got to be kidding me.” I know I have to remove the stereo components and whatnot just to get to the port connector, and that may not even be what burned out, but I won’t know until I try replacing that piece and it still doesn’t work. Could be a different wire between that plug and the fuse box. Arg, one day I’ll care enough to look at it again.
