Default Fuses for the Kawi 360 ?

I have a 360 and it works reasonably well --- other than tight valves. But the electrical (lights, starter, etc.) work good. All kinds os battery. however recently the cigarette lighter has stoped working. I don't use it much (emergency pump up of tires, etc.) but would like to get it working again.

I am not a mechanic but the first thing that comes to mind would be a fuse. Is this possibile and if so how are they accessed? Part two of this question is , if fuses are invoved, what would be the exact part number so that I could get the fuse first (rather than opening it up looking at the fuse, then going to the store to get one)? I probably should have a spare anyway.

Thanks fr any and all replies.

As you guessed, it is probably the blown fuse. Check under the seat for the fuse.
> It is a round glass-bottle type (ones used in older cars).
> It is 5-amp rating on earlier year models, but could be 10-amp on later year models.
> Fuse is INSIDE the black rubber/plastic housing that looks like the fuse body, and it is under the seat next to the main fuse (30-amp) holder.
> You don't need a P/N as long as the amp rating and size are the same.
> If it is not the fuse issue, check the bullet pin connector coming out from the power outlet. And check where it connects to the main harness. It could be a connection issue.
> If it is 5-amp rating, don't use anything more than 60-watt accessory. If it is 10-amp fuse, 120-watt rated accessory is the maximum you can use.

Thanks.

I keep the bike closer to my vacation property (hence why I would like to pick up a fuse before leaving town) but will check your sugestions out this weekend, hopefully diagnose and get the fuse (or whatever) next week. Thank goodness it is not a vital part and the machine can be used in the meantime.
