Cigarette lighter not working, already changed fuse

I have a 2005 Ford F150 and the cigarette lighter doesn't work. I changed the fuse and it still doesn't work. IS there anything else I need to do?

    I know where the fuse box is located. I changed the fuse for the cigarette lighter and it isn't working. Is there something else wrong?

You can buy a cheap test light for 2 or 3 dollars. hook the alligator clip
to a good body ground or better still hold it against the outer metal shell
of the lighter socket. Then put the pointy end into the center of the socket
The test light should light up. If it doesnt light, the plug on the back may
not be connected or an open circuit. If it does light you may have a defective
lighter element

Cigarette lighter jack and outlet next to console no longer work. 2005 ford expedition.

Have you tried putting the key into the ignition and turning it to just before the start
position? Some vehicles do not operate the accessory jack with out the key in the
accessory (back) or just before the start position. If it still doesn't work, look for the fuse
marked ACC in the fuse panel. Hope this helps.

I have a 2005 town and country minivan,i can not find the fuse for the cigarette lighter and i don't understand the abbreviations on the fuse box panel can you please help.

the cigarette lighter fuse may be marked cig.usually it is clearly marked on the fuse panel cover.if all else fails check all the fuses with a test light.sometimes the cigarette lighter element burns out and doesn`t work.this is the part that you light the cigarette with and the element can be changed by it self.it unscrews from the handle portion when you pull up on the sliding part and turn the element portion.

Cigarette lighter not working, already changed fuse

Look in your manual for the Power Distribution Box reference in Roadside Emergencies. It should be located under the hood on the driver's side. My 2002 Explorer has two power points on the center console and the 20A fuses in the Power Distribution Box for them are number 7 and number 9. They cost $3.99 each at AutoZone. The cigar lighter fuse under the dash is unrelated.
