My Accessories Socket (cigarette lighter) has no power. It worked fine previously.

Tried ignition on, engine on etc etc. No change.
Tried several devices which work in another car - no sign of life.
Checked fuses inside car visually (fuse #16 in handbook). Look OK.

Any other things to check/do?
Thanks.

Sorry to hear- I have no “fix” for you other than to check the fuse again and check it is making good contact in the socket.

I think the socket might also be connected to the ecu as I had a problem when I installed a back up battery to my dash cam and the car wouldn’t shut down with it connected.

Have you tried disconnecting the car battery for 30 mins?
