There is another fuse wire in connecting side of holder itself. it is "C" like wire 3 to 4 mm length. Just behind the fuse holder.
correction not just behaind the fuse holder but just behaind the lighter socket "Wire connecting side"
I think mine has blown but not sure of the proper name for this c shaped wire fuse and how to buy a replacement. Cannot find any info online. The main pin type fuse is fine so I suspect it is this other little fuse

SOURCE: Where is the cigarette lighter fuse in a Toyota Celica?
There are 2 possible areas. 1 is the fuse box beside your left foot. 2 would be in the engine compatment on the right.
SOURCE: No power to radio, cigarette lighter
This one's the fusebox in the interior of the car; usually below the steering wheel in a panel with a thumbscrew that you just give a quarter-turn, then catch it as it opens; inside are some fuses, which tend to be obvious when they are blown. There's a little legend that tends to be well-lit too, indicating which fuses were for the ligher/'auxillary 12v power' socket. Don't let a failed lighter bust on you; a flaming car is much more expensive than tossing/replacing the bad part or plugging something else in.
SOURCE: cigarette lighter socket not working
The fuse for the cigarette lighter is the 15 amp CIG fuse. According to my wiring book, the fuse box is either behind the console, passenger side for US cars, or under the dash, driver side.
