Do you know that there's power to the socket? They're often on a fuse of their own in the car (assuming you're trying to plug it into a car).

Some of the in line cigarette type leads have a fuse in?
Do you have another 12v appliance that you can plug in to test that power is actually getting to the socket?

I have issues with the connector that fits into lighter socket it doesn’t work wish I knew what to do as they aren’t cheap



Welcome to UKCS.

Is your vehicle's 12V socket working properly with a different 12V item, like a phone charger for your mobile phone?

If that is working properly, then the 12V connector on your coolbox could be faulty.

It has a fuse inside and could have blown.

The fuse can be replaced by opening the connector. If it is a moulded one, then it may need to be cut off for a replacement one to be fitted.

If you do not know how to change a 3-pin plug, then I suggest you ask someone who is more knowledgeable to help to be on the safe side.

Good luck.
