That's easy, stick you finger in it!!
Sorry had to, if I didnt, someone else woulda. But back to business..
This is actually pretty easy to check on. First start by looking into the socket itself. These sockets, because of their location, frequently have change fall into them, or some small screw or something. If you see something in there, its gotta be fished out. If the socket is clear, rear behand the socket, you will feel a 2 wire plug going to it. Unplug it, and put a new fuse in. If it blows, then you know its not the socket. If it doesnt, then you know something is wrong with it.
Open the glove box, then lift out the liner. you will then see the fuse panel. The fuse slots are labelled. Hope that helps.
Open the passenger side door, and theres a fuse door there. On the back of the fuse door, it should tell you wich fuse is te lighter fuse. It's probably an accessory fuse.

Accessory Fuse. If you have a manual, it'll tell you exactly which access. fuse it is if you have more than one, otherwise, resort to the old pull and look method. In case you don't know how to tell if the fuse is blown, there's a metal arch in the fuse, and if the arch isn't complete, the fuse is blown.
