Just bought a used '08 135i. Found a penny in the middle console cigarette lighter driving home, it had blown the fuse and was inoperable for who knows how long. I replaced the fuse with the spare and the lighter socket worked but I got no power to my USB devices or USB/AUX working with the center console audio setups.

I'm thinking about ordering the new unit for only 40 bucks that you listed and replacing. I already got the part out and tried to measure some voltage coming from the wires but got nothing. Was wondering if anyone has had a similar issue with the lighter socket working but NOT usb and aux sockets. Very strange since they are all on the same fuse from what I see.

PS We have the same model/color. Love the SGM and thanks for the info you already put above, was helpful!
