If you do not have a blown fuse. Look at this link and it will tell you what size fuse goes where. If you are missing a fuse you can replace it with the right size fuse. I do not see cigarette lighter on the list. https://www.autogenius.info/ford-escape-2008-2012-fuse-box-diagram/
Changing the fuse in the fuse box wont solve your problem On the back of the socket that is mounted in the dash that the lighter pushes into has a inline fuse that if over heated will blow. You will have to change the lighter. Toyota wanted close to $70 for a replacement lighter for my Tacoma. I never used the cigarette lighter for cigarett but needed to charge my cell phone so I replaced it with a dash Mount 12 Volt Power Socket for $10. Good luck.
The fuse for the cigarette lighter is located in the Power Distribution Center fuse box under the hood. This will be a 15Amp blue fuse. Now I believe it is the fuse in spot F-18 but if you look under the lid for this box there will be a legend (diagram) of each fuse in that box.
For 1998 VW Passat V6 the fuse box is located on the left side of dashboard behind a plastic cover (for left hand steering wheel vehicle). On inner face of the plastic cover you will find the fuse diagram. The cigarette lighter fuse for 1998 VW Passat V6 is placed in the fuse box / relay plate fascia 1, (driver's door open). See pictures below:
First, check the fuse box your fuse is out of order or second try your cigarette lighter in different car may be the cigarette lighter is broken
If can't find fuse box, easy way to check your cigarette lighter is try any mobile phone chargeri, is there any electricity??? If it is not change the fuse If there is elec. change the lighter
what cooresponds with the numbers is on the back of the cover of the fuse box you removed. none of them were labeled for cigarette lighter though. i have a '99 Protege and my outlet isn't working.
YOU HAVE A SHORT. OK THE LIGHTER ITSELF CAN BE BAD UNPLUG LIGHTER FROM THE BACK PUT NEW FUSE IN IF IT DOESNT BLOW CHANGE LIGHTER ASSM IF IT DOES TRACE WIRES FROM LIGHTER TO FUSE BOX YOU WILL AND CAN FIX THIS
