Front cigarette port potentially shorted...

Hi all,

I was at Buttonwillow this last weekend and I noticed a coin flew into my front cigarette charger lol. I usually plug my radar chord into this but took it out because I was tracking the car.

When the track day was over I went to plug my radar into the port and it would get no power. Has anyone had a metal object go into their cigarette charger port before? Does anyone know if I can fix this via just a fuse replacement? Please advise!

Hello,
I would just check fuse for cigarette port.
It should be simple repair.

Thanks
