Could be. Have you checked the owners manual to see where the fuse is and check it? If the fuse is good and the lighter is still not working pull the lighter out and check to make sure the lighter has power. If it does have power then go to your local parts store and buy a new cigarette lighter and install.

You can fix this by replacing the fuse behind the "Coin/storage" box on the drivers side. It will be a 15amp (blue) fuse. If its just one of the lighters, you can probably replace it with one of the spares from the fuse box under the hood.

How do you replace a fuse to the cigarette lighter in a 2004 Highlander. I need it to plug in my ipod adapter. Where is the fuse box?
The Highlander does have two fuse boxes one in the engine compartment and the other In the Cab. The Second fuse box is where you will find the Fuse to the lighter.
There is a small Door on the left side that Pulls open on the driver sided about knee level. If you Use a flash Light you can see the fuse box behind this pocket door. Open the Door and Pull the pocket door up it should come off easily and you will haves access to the fuses behind it.
replace the 15 amp fuse #23 or the 15 amp fuse on the left sided 2nd down Be sure the check the other 15amp fuse which is 2 below that. That is for the Other cigarette type plug on the passenger side.

2006 jeep liberty cigarette lighter problem
its probably not the lighter itself, it's probably lost power. check the fuse for the cig lighter and see if blown. if it is, replace. if it blows immediately you have a dead short. if not, pay attention to when it stops working. could be a problem with whatever you are plugging in, or something else on the circuit

Cigarette Lighter broken on Ford Escape
Fuse box should be located either in the glove compartment, or to your left below stearing wheel. Also check fuses under hood, should be located next to the battery. Double check the GPS, most of them will nox plug into cigarette lighter plug. It could damage the GPS.
