Dash lighting not working...
Dash lighting not working...
The wiring issue is now sorted and everything is working as it should behind the dash, the issue i'm having now is the cigarette lighter socket, i'm getting +12V from it but when i put a usb charger in it they blow and i can't tell why so was wondering maybe i'm getting too much amps could one of you tell me what the socket should be supplying in volts and amps, perhaps even suggest what could be causing the chargers to blow?
P.S.: in case you were wondering the lighter itself actually works perfectly, at first i thought it was the polarity of the wiring but i tried it both ways and it still happens.
Thanks in advance.

Ryan,
Have you tried a different charger? It could be that one.
