Hey guys - I have a 2005 Exploder and BOTH of my cigarette lighters / power ports are non-functional. The front one (directly in front of the armrest compartment) stopped working after my son jammed it full of pennies. I checked the fuse and it appears ok. Not sure what else to do on that one.

The rear one (on the backside of the armrest assembly, near the floor) was working fine until this week. I pushed the GPS charger plug into the outlet and it kept springing back out. So I put my finger in there and realized that a small, round disc (looks like a thin life-saver) was lying loose in there. I removed that disc but now when I plug any type of plug into the outlet, it feels loose and won't charge.

Any ideas on either of these items? Thanks in advance!

:cool::):D
