Mercedes - fuse location for cigar lighter


Expert: whunter - 12/13/2006

Question
I have a 1975 Mercedes 450SL, 50K miles, and live near Tucson Arizona.  I plugged my phone charger into the cigar lighter, and blew the fuse.  I have located the fuse box, but there is not a diagram listing which fuse is for what.  Can you help me locate where in the fuse box is the fuse designated for the cigar lighter?  I am quite some distance from the nearest Mercedes dealer.

Thank you
