Removal Procedure
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Suzuki XL7. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Remove the auxiliary power outlet fuse from the fuse block.
- Remove the receptacle:
- Look into the receptacle. There are two 3 mm (0.11 in) tab windows 12 mm (0.47 in) from the front of the receptacle. The J 42059 pushes the plastic latches from these tab windows and the receptacle can be pulled straight out.
- Place one side of the "T" portion of the J 42059 into the tab window. The J 42059 will not fit straight into the receptacle. Angle the J 42059 slightly for insertion into the receptacle.
- Insert the other side of the "T" into the opposite tab window. You must move the J 42059 handle toward horizontal to engage the other tab window.
- Use the J 42059 to pull the receptacle straight out.
- If J 42059 tool fails to release the lighter socket from the retainer, perform the following alternate method:
- Insert a small grinding tool with a cutoff wheel into the socket.
- Remove the plastic latches in the 3 mm (0.11 in) square windows.
- Use the J 42059 as directed above to remove the socket.
