It just suddenly stopped giving off electricity, when I was driving it was fine, but when I finished parking it, it just stopped working. I removed the panel and checked the back and all the wiring seems to be all connected.

What do you think seems to be the problem with it?

Wrong, I turned the ignition several times, and to no avail. I will try what chain has suggested.

After looking into some more things, I looked into the fuse box and found that the fuse for the cigar lighter was blown. The cause was the electric tire pump, everytime I seem to plug it in and turn it on, it blows the fuse automatically.

I will have to buy another 15amp fuse, but I have found the cause. Thanks for the help.
