Title: Honda Jazz 2008 GD chassis
Post by: Godwottery on May 29, 2026, 06:17:42 AM

Hi all. I have a Honda Jazz 2008 GD chassis.

I bought a usb charger to put in the cigarette lighter port however it doesn’t work.

The cigarette lighter does work because it heats up the actual cigarette lighter thing.

I assume the usb charger I bought doesn’t work in the cigarette lighter port. Does anyone know any that do work on my model of car?

Hi  Welcome to the forum.
  Others have reported this problem. I think some usb adapters dont penetrate deep enough into the socket to make a good electrical contact. I dont think its directly related to its build quality.   Some work , some dont.

I have an 'alca' brand triple outlet  that works  in my mk4  ,but thats no guarantee it would work in your car. Especially as mine has never been used with a cigarette lighter 'thingie' that can make the socket terminals dirty or corroded.  But I have also tried it with one or two cheapo " £1  including postage from China "  no name  adapters  in the past that  also worked.
