Not the end of the world, (bit of a fag really smile) but time is limited and the sat nav needs power!

Should be fuse No 4 but that's fine.

Knowing TVR it could be another or in-line?

Anyone have any info before I rewire it?

I know!

Do you mean connected at the lighter socket, if so that's what I was trying to access and gave up!

Check to see if its a + fault or a - grounding issue 1st wink outside the socket is ground (the chrome bit) the center pin is + as it may not be a fuse but a break in the loom check the multi-plug above the bonnet release under the dash near the A pillar it my be a bit oxidized from all that standing about Peter scratchchin
