If you are not able to fix the problem after trying these steps, it is best to take your car to a qualified mechanic or an auto-electrician who can diagnose and repair the issue.

I replaced my lighter socket on my 2004 Pontiac grand am and it still doesn't work i should've checked the fuse first but i checked it and replaced it with a new one but my lighter still don't work??? Any help would be greatly appreciated. You just gotta have power in your car these days. Thanks guys
not told are you smoke (last one doing it?)
or using it for charging cell photo
or using a crazy car space there there and blows the 25amp fuse ever time. gee can't guess usage can we. (vast)?
it's just to fuse, 10 year later posters.
just a fuse
if still confused ask where it is.
it is in the fuse box.(engine bay)
service manual (facts /hard)
Cigar Lighter/Power Outlet Schematics
under hood (bonnet in UK) fuse box.
forget the word CIG, the fuses both are called aux power outlets 1 front , 1 rear
aux pwr fuse10
front and rear on just 1 fuse
the fuse goes direct to the battery. so is hot all the time so if car runs and drives (not told)
then it can only be 3 things
bad fuse F10
bad aux socket
wires from f10 to socket bad. cut, rusty or whatever damaged,socket packed up in ashes.
the most simple circuit on any car is this.
cave man simple in fact. ( Jules Gabriel Verne )
if are smoking, using wrong lighter?
lighter bad/ buy new one? best is stop smoking.

The lighter socket or the element.
Check the element for burn marks and the socket for debris blocking the contacts.
SOURCE: where the cigarette lighter fuse in car 2005 grand
i just had to change mine. It is under the hood, on the passenger side. Its located in a black box that has either a lightning bolt on it, or says fuses. the box is near the battery if that helps. When you open it, it will be labeled as "Auxilery Power" or "Aux Power"on the diagram located on the inside of te box. It is a single fuse. It was confusing on mine because there were two things labeled "10", but it will be a thin, probabily yellow fuse that says 25 on it. Dont get it confused with the big square grey thing on the left side. You might even have a spare fuse if you check the diagram.

It would most likely say accessory fuse or courtesy.
Thank you for using fixya and good luck.

yes it will fix your cigarette lighter. open the door on the drivers side and crawl in there and look up to your left it should be right there use a flash light .. good-luck ray
SOURCE: Need to locate fuse box
its probably on the end of the dash where the driver side door butts up to it. Otherwise under the driver side dash or in the glove box.
