I had the same problem. I had to remove the radio and get behind the cigarette lighter console area. The tab on the connector is thin sort of like a link which burned open because it could not handle the amount of amperage draw by the lighter. All I did was use a solder iron and melted some solder on it. Its been working now for three years.

My liters don't work I can't charge anything in my 2000Yukon what do I do is it a wire?

If you mean your "Lighters" as in cigarette lighter, then you need to check your fuses. Look in your owner's manual to see which one is associated with your "lighter". . . .

no power, means, what, cig lighter plug dead,?
try something else there, like a cell charger, still dead.?
if it is truely dead, the fuse is blown.
does head lights work, and engine run?
ok fuses that bad are bad, blown. (blown elements)
ok fuse that look GOOD, can in fact be bad, (tiny cracks.)
we never fail to test good looking fuses or go nuts for sure.
you can test fuse 3 ways.
1: DMM ohms, 0 ohms reading
2: voltmeter shows, 12v, on both sides of fuse, key on.
3: a fuse tester dealy bob at any autostore. (ill pass)
there are other ways, but are way too complex to type.
(ok a battery powered test light , yes, all auto stores sell them.
glow with a good fuse)
bingo?

My horn and my cigarette liter stopped working all of a sudden

The horn and cigarette lighter share a common fuse, so that is most likely the cause of your problem. The fuse is number 8 in the junction block, located under the left side of the interment cluster (under the dash). Good Luck!
