Cigar Lighter

With the Ignition Switch in the "ACC" or "ON" position, voltage is applied through the CIGAR RADIO Fuse to the Cigar Lighter. The Cigar Lighter is grounded through G200. With both power and ground supplied, when the Cigar Lighter is pressed in, the Cigar Lighter heating element will begin to heat up. When the heating element reaches a predetermined temperature value, the Cigar Lighter will pop out, thus interrupting the circuit.
