Valentine 1 problem

Just wanted to ask you guys a question, I've recently been purchased a 911 turbo cab and wanted to use my valentine 1 in the vehicle. But when I plugged the power source to the cigarette adapter, my V1 did not power up..... Can someone tell me what might be the problem? Thanks in advance.

Three possibilities

1. Fuse blew on the V1 lighter plug
2. Fuse blew on the Turbo's lighter plug socket
3. You didn't push it in all the way

Mine is hardwired now but I had no problems using my V1 in my turbo. Try using the aux 12V socket under the dashboard next to the center stack. If it still doesn't work, it's probably the 1A blade fuse on the V1's plug.

It seems like the v1 plug was slightly bigger, so I pushed it in "all the way" an viola! she started up. Thank you for all your feedback.
