Where is the cigarette lighter fuse on a 2006 mercury mountaineer?

In a 2006 Mercury Mountaineer, the cigarette lighter fuse is located in the fuse panel, which is found under the dashboard on the driver's side. To access it, remove the cover of the fuse panel, and look for the fuse labeled for the cigarette lighter or accessory outlet, typically numbered 12 or 13. If you need to replace it, ensure the vehicle is off and check the fuse for continuity.
