I have a 1993 VR. I just installed a cigarette lighter for charging my cell phone. I tested the cigarette lighter with the lighter, no issues, in 20 seconds it was hot and popped out (as expected). I plugged in my cell phone car charger adapter and in a couple of seconds I heard a loud pop and smoke coming from my adapter.

 

I hooked red (center wire) to positive terminal and black wire to negative terminal.

 

What did I do wrong?

 

Thank you.

You let the magic smoke out.

 

 

Thank you.

 

You are very welcome. You can make the check out to 'cash' and send it directly to me.

 

Never Mind.

 

I won't even tell you what I did incorrectly.

 

You already DID tell us... You let the magic smoke out - sheesh! :doh:

 

This thread can be deleted. I'll look how to do it also.

 

Nope. It is going to be here to haunt you FOR-EV-ER! :crackup::crackup: :rasberry:

Yea that...and besides...some of our best discussions here are based on nothing more than teasing each other about dumb mistakes. :)

 

Now...I COULD just delete this thread...but that just don't seem right. :witch_brew:
