Cigar Sockets Live???

Does anyone know if the cigar sockets can be made to work when the engine is not running as it is a pain to start the engine just for tyre inflation.

Thanks

    Repair problem!.... change your leaky tyres

    If you're finding it inconvenient to have your engine on whilst inflating your tyres with a 12v pump, you're blowing them up WAYYYY to often matey

    But yes, with a little knowledge of the cars wiring map, you can make this possible. No point though

    Nothing wrong with the tyres. I was just using the tyre inflation as an example.
