Long time since I have been on here!

I cannot for the life of me find the fuse for the cigarette lighter. Can someone point me to it?! Can't chag my phone....the world might end :p

Owners manual should have fuse locations.

Thank you very much. I appreciate the response. What is the CEM? Under hood or the dashboard on the left?

Thanks, will look tomorrow. I had no recollection that there were fuses under the dash. Only in the access panel on the side of the dash and under the hood.

Here's a list that I found to be useful and that I printed out to keep in the car: http://www.volvohowto.com/volvo-v70xc70-2000-to-2007-fuses-list-and-amperage/#2005-to-2007

Thanks! Found it and changed it today. A real PITA. You can barely see the fuses or reach them without being a contortionist or turning upside down on the seats with your head under the dash after you take the panel off which is also a pain to put back on.

Yes, it takes a yoga move to access those! I piggy-backed the cigarette lighter fuse with a jumper for my dash cam so I could hide the wiring up to the cam behind the rear view mirror and so the cam goes on when I turn on the ignition, and off when off. Only drawback is that I can't put too much amperage through the 12V ports.
