If you have an owners manual under fuses look for cigar lighter or accessories? That will be the only reason for a lighter inoperable?

SOURCE: cigarette lighter won't work fuse ok lighter base ok

I would put a red volt meter lead on the middle and a the black lead on the outside. If it checks above 12 vols, the lighter itself is bad. If no voltage is present, you have to check all the positive wires back to the battery. If those are all working, you have a bad ground.

Check for power at the fuse on both sides of the fuse if there is power check the wire going to the lighter if there is power check for ground if all are there you may need a new lighter if either power or ground are not present trace the wiring to find a short or bad wire.

Those things are not built well, the coil that heats up usually fails. You can get one at autozone etc.

The cigarette lighter doesnt work in my 2004 alero

  • Better check the fuse maybe the fuse is busted. But if the fuse is good visit a good electrician to check the wires.

Replace the cigarette lighter

Try a different device with an LED on it , plugged in to see if you have power. If not start with your fuse. If the lighter is out and a coin falls in there... no power.. If it all checks out, look for a new lighter .
