Is the top, two pin dark coloured block the I/P for the power supply? (I'm guessing it is since it's the only two pin socket). You may need to check the polarity of your cig lighter.
Something tells me in the dark recesses of my mind, that they are wired reverse to what most manufacturers of cig lighter PSU adapters expect. But I could be wrong shruggy.
It's worth checking. HTH's up


You are correct, it's labelled Power. Interesting that there appears to be a reverse-polarity protection diode beside it. If the OP has been using the same cigarette lighter plug for three months, it probably isn't a case of reverse polarity.

That capacitor, along with two others, a jumper and a resistor are post-production modifications.
I have been using the same power port without trouble and yes the left plug is power but is a 4 prong.
