1995 cadillac sedan deville with penny in cigarette lighter now car won't start

Try disconnecting the battery and leaving it for 1 hour before connecting it back up again.
Then, assuming that all fuses and maxi fuses under the hood are fine, and the battery is stioll good with a full charge. As well, the car actually starts.

You'll need to remember that the car will need to be put through a system relearn process in order to run properly.

I just noticed the my first reply was apparently cut short. I was suggesting that you should check the fuses for the Lighter

You should have approximately three different fuse distribution blocks ont hat model. the first under the drivers side of the dash and the second is either under the passnger side dash, or under the back seat on the drivers side. Also under the Hood there is another Called MAXI Fuses... It is located nearest the firewall on the passenger side. Be sure to check all of these and verify that the fuses are good, and properly seated.

If all checks out ok, none are burnt or sitting tilted in their socket, You may want to check the fusible link at the starter as it may have very likely burnt out. If your not aware that these links have a rubber coating on them or what they look like, I suggest that you should ask a buddy, neighbor or maybe a coworker to help. Because to many people looking, these may look good but they need to be tested for battery voltage up beyond the length of the rubber coating where it turns into a plastic covered wire. It is very possible that this is what burnt out and you will need to replace it in order to start your car.
