If the cigarette lighter is not working and the ACC fuse, inside the car, left of steering wheel, is still good (radio is working), the "fuse" on the back side of the cigarette lighter socket, a brown wire, has blown. Socket needs to be replaced or fixed with a soldering iron and a new wire.
If the cigarette lighter in your 2001 Citroën Picasso isn't working, first check the fuse associated with the lighter, as a blown fuse is a common cause. You can find the fuse box under the dashboard or in the engine compartment; consult your owner's manual for the exact location. Additionally, ensure that the lighter socket is clean and free of debris. If the lighter still doesn't work after these checks, it may need to be replaced or there could be an issue with the wiring.

If none of the cigarette lighters in your 2012 Chevy Impala are working, it could be due to a blown fuse, a faulty lighter socket, or a wiring issue. Start by checking the fuse box for any blown fuses related to the accessory power outlets. If the fuses are fine, inspect the sockets for debris or damage. If everything appears normal but the lighters still don't work, it may be best to consult a mechanic for further diagnosis.
To fix the cigarette lighter in a BMW X5, first ensure that the fuse associated with the lighter is not blown; consult the owner's manual for the correct fuse location. If the fuse is intact, check for any debris or damage in the lighter socket itself. If the lighter still does not work, it may be necessary to replace the lighter element or socket, which can typically be done by carefully removing the trim panel around it and disconnecting the wiring harness. If you're not comfortable with DIY repairs, consider taking the vehicle to a professional mechanic.
Make sure the wires are connected to the cigar lighter. If they are, is there any power to them? If not, check the fuse. If there is power and it still won't work, then the lighter itself may be burned out. Try a different lighter in your socket to see if it works, or buy a replacement lighter/socket assembly and install it.
Did you ever find out where the cigarette lighter fuse was located on the 98 Camry? I have a 00 Camry and im looking for my cig. lighter fuse. The fuse is in a fuse box located under the drivers side of the dashboard to the left of the steering column. If the fuse is good and the cigarette lighter still does not work, the wire attaching at the cigarette lighter itself has probably burned or broken off necessitating the lighter be changed. It's a comon problem.
I just read on here somewhere else that if the radio is still working the problem may be a small brown wire on the back of your actual cigarette lighter that needs to be redone. good luck

You need to find the correct lighter socket for ur type of vehicle, you could use a unviersal one to save some cash, but personally i rather to with OEM parts for this kind of stuff to not have to mess with wiring. Afterwards all u need to do s remove the panel where ur lighter socket is located, on my 2004 ford mustang i have to remove the actual pannel and not the side one to access the lighter socket. disconect the electrical cable connected to it and then proceed with removing the sockets houseing bracket. Afterwards push the socket out the front and replace it with the new one and connect all cables back along with panel. But if its not ur fuse that isn't blown id still test the lighter socket with a multimeter to check its that is the one that is not working before purchasing antyhing
