Today's repair job was my 12v tyre inflator.

For a while now the cigar lighter plug that powers it has been "pernikety" about working, which wasn't helped by the tip of the plug getting so hot it actually melted the plastic and burnt my fingers.

So, a quick Amazon order for a cigar lighter plug and I've managed to replace it. The fun part was working out which side of the twin cable was positive and which side was negative (in the end I cut the old plug off with 1/2" of trailing cable left and used a multimeter).

For now, I've used the plug's screw terminals (to see if it works). I might get around to soldering the connections once I know the plug and unit work ok
