Hi !!!

Does anyone know where the earth to the cigarette lighter goes to or is located. I had a small issue when pumping my tyre up and has shorted it out loads of bits.

Now my fuel gauge and my temperature gauge wont work. The battery warning light is on but is charging. Guessing is earth connections I have checked all fuses ... any ideas ....

Years ago my cig lighter jamming in caused all sorts of electrical problems. Had to call out an auto-spark who changed a relay somewhere up behind the fuse panel, problem solved .
You could try the paper-clip test to see if it offers any info

Check the fuses again, this is a behavior that is common to a blown fuse, although I can't remember which one. Too much coincidence, I would double check.
