[A8] Blown fuses

[Jason Haines]

Paul,

Thanks for the quick info. The problem is that the problem is erratic. The
cigarette lighter works fine for her cell phone charger (and mine too) for
weeks or months and then all of a sudden the fuse blows. It doesn't look
like much else is on that circuit (from the fuse panel description).
