Hello.
I have an INNORI USB Automotive cigarette lighter power device that plugs into the cigarette lighter outlet in my car and is supposed to branch that into 3 cigarette lighter outlets and 2 standard USB outlets. Unfortunately, neither of the USB outlets work. Instead, when I plug a USP port power checker into the port, it will flash for a second then go VERY dim...as if it's not getting near enough power. Only a very faint glow.
Both ports do the exact same thing. However, the cigarette lighter ports work fine. Here are some photos and I'm wondering if anyone sees anything obvious? I checked the diode and it seems ok. The sky blue wire on the back is Negative 12v and the pinkish wire 12v +
I'm not really seeing any viable voltage step down for the USB ports. I'm familiar with buck boards and DC - DC power reduction somewhat and I don't see how this thing does the step down from 12v to 5v ?
Any advice appreciate.
