What does the fuse card symbol for a cigarette lighter look like?

A fuse card symbol for a cigarette lighter typically looks like a small rectangle or square with a wavy line running through the middle. The wavy line represents the filament of the fuse, and the rectangle or square represents the housing of the fuse. The fuse card symbol is usually found on the side of the fuse itself or in the car's owner manual.

Fuse cards are small devices used to protect electrical circuits from damage caused by excessive current flow. They are typically made of a thin piece of metal that melts and breaks the circuit if the current flow exceeds a certain level. Fuse cards are used in a variety of electrical devices, including cigarette lighters, radios, and power windows.

If the fuse card in your cigarette lighter blows, you will need to replace it with a new one of the same amperage rating. You can find fuse cards at most auto parts stores.
