Today I was trying to put in an iPod car adapter into the adapter hole (that is where it is suppose to be inserted) but when I did, It turned off my radio and adapter hole. The radio and cigarette hole do not work now. The radio will not turn on and the cigarette hole is non functional. I am not sure how to fix this, I would appreciate some help! Thanks!

Check the 15A CIG Fuse - located in the instrument panel junction box, lower left side of dash.

Most likely it is blown………..you need to replace it. Sometimes it is best to use an ohm meter to ensure they are good………….or bad in this case.
