Our Brand new Jetta has two cig plugs neither of which work. I suspect a bad fuse but am reluctant to go "pulling willy nilly" as shutting off power to something that shouldn't be deprived of it's DC voltage, might screw something up. Here's a pic of the fuse panel. I have searched the internet till my eyes bleed, but can't find a similar panel to reference. Does anyone know which fuse (probably 20 Amp) controls the cig plugs on a 2017 Jetta? Stan

I'd vote for the dealer warranty fuse.

Car is new. Make dealer fix it! Likely would be a fuse. Your manual should show you fuse location. Just pull it out and look at it if you do not want to use a test light or voltmeter...

Ok, I understand the dealer is responsible and it would be free and all, but drive all the way in to Nanaimo just to have someone change a fuse? ?? I'd be ashamed to show up with a request like that! My gripe is that VW doesn't supply a labelled diagram of the fuses in the car!!!!! Stan

And they warn that there are a couple of fuses that control the "disable your car" function that shouldn't be mucked about with.

OK got hold of the guy at harborview who told me not to mess too much with the fuses in the engine compartment because they're the one's that can mess up the various computer stuff. So I figured from some hints I found online that various vw models use fuse #30 for the cig plugs. Sure enough it was the one. Serious design flaw in these models, but once you know about it you can avoid the trap. Stan
