I dropped a dime into the power supply port where the cigarette lighter goes and when I was pulling it there was a small spark. I use this port for my air freshener and cell phone charger which don't work now. What do I have to check, any idea what fuse maybe or do I have to replace the whole thing? Oh this is for a 07 B7 A4
cheers [up]

I'm sure it's listed in your owners manual.

Fuse # 33. Should be a 20 amp fuse.

hope you didn't take it to the dealership for just a change of the fuse... hopefully they'll do it for free... hopefully they don't try ripping you off by saying you have to change the circuit...
anyways happened to me all the time in my old car... pain in the arse just to get them out... now i just place all my change in the card bin next to the hazard light button.

oh no the dealership said they would take care of it since my car has been there since friday. it went in for oil leaking out of the oil cap, noisy power steering pump, and belts making noise.
