Check the brake fuse in your dash's fusebox. Since the turns work, you know the bulbs are good, unless your Neon has separate brake lights. If the fuse is good, bulbs are good, then check for power at the brake light switch on the upper portion of the brake pedal. Should have 12 volts there all the time. Use a testlight or voltmeter to check. Good luck.
you need to check that there is power to the cigarette lighter before you replace it,it still may be a fuse you can usually tell if a fuse is blown by looking at it, if you can't try & get someone to show you how, cigarette lighters can usually be bought from a spare parts shop that will usually fit but you may have to a genuine one from a dodge dealer......hope this helps......cheers
first thing to do is grab the owners manual and look at the fuse diagram. If you dont have that you can get one from a dealer for a small fortune. I reccommend getting a flash light and visually inspecting each fuse. they should be black or the metal broken if they are bad.
Your post is just a tad bit confusing. In most cars these days they have a ciggarette lighter as well as a power port or two.
Is your cigarette light port and your power port, in your eyes, the same thing? If yes, and you've checked the fuse and "it appears to be fine" then I would say that you have a short in your wiring that for some reason isn't tripping the fuse. Unlikely though.
I believe in one car I worked on had two different fuses that went to the ciggarette ligher. Maybe just maybe you have a few different fuses running your ports and you checked some of the fuses but not all of them.
Most cars have fuse boxes in the following locations: Engine Bay, Glove Box, Drivers or passengers side kick panel, trunk.
The most likely spots to check for a fuse box is to the left of your legs while sitting in the drivers seat and underneath the hood.
first of all check all your fuses and if they are good then take the negative side off the battery and then remove the lighter itself to see if the wire is off on the back and then put the negative back on and use a 12 volt to see if you have power and if there is power in the wire the element may just be burned out you can stop by a salvage yard and get one cheap.
