Car Lighter Charges Intermittently

Hi All,

I did a search and couldn't find anything about this, but recently my car lighter power thing has been intermittently charging my cell phone. Anyone know if there is an easy fix for this, I think the springs to make it hold tight may be loose, so it keeps disconnecting... I haven't tried it with another device yet, I will just to confirm that it isn't my lighter.

I hope I made sense. I don't express myself well.

Thanks!

my charger goes out every now and then too. i usually have to rotate the charger until the green charge light comes on, then it charges until i hit a bump in the road and it wiggles loose again!

Welcome to the club. I was on a road trip and I look down and I'm doin 90 and I look up at my radar detector and its off, so I had to rotate it around a little bit. Had to do it like 3 times in 2 hours.
