im drivin to virginia tonight for the weekend, and i put a ps2 in my car just for the trip. so i bought a power inverter for my ps2 and when i turn it all on i see lines on the monitor. it kinda seems like "roadnoise" but it happens when the car is off too. any ideas?

The PS2 might need a sine wave inverter instead of modified sine wave, or there might not be enough power for it. So, if you get it working, are you actually going to entertain yourself playing with video games while driving or is it for your kids?Comment

1996 only has the one cig lighter socket.
And I don't know that it would be the cigarette lighter socket. If it works for a cig cord on a phone or other accessories, it should work for the inverter. If the inverter is powering on, then you have some other issue.
Regardless, I don't trust the cigarette lighter to run much in my cars, so I hardwire everything in. I leave the lighter open so if friends need it to charge their phones or something, they can have at it."No, officer, that bottle is my onboard Halon system"Comment
