Re: [DML] cigarette lighter Batt. Drain (Fixed)

[John Podlewski <john_podlewski@xxxxxxxxx>]

Cigarette lighter fixed thanks to all, especially Dave S
After checking all the wiring and connections. All I had to do was just rotate 
The lighter housing like he suggested, I know it's been that way for atleast
Five years because I have always had a constant drain on my Opitma  Battery. I just don't drive the car enough, and overlooked the obvious.
