Default Lighter Power Fuse

Does anybody know where the fuse is for the cigarette lighter.
It just stoped working, but I can't find the fuse... I need it to plug
in my phone.

I looked under the hood.. couldn't find it.

Inside the car it might be the accesory one but its not blown.
Is it the accessory one... I dunno???

Ok I did some research:

There are two fuses to check and one relay:

1)Fuse under the hood, top row second from left (fuse 46)
2)Fuse under the dash, top row at left end (fuse 18)
3)Cig lighter relay under the dash, top row center

all from the helms... wow i didn't know a cig lighter circuit can be so complex. It is due to the fact that it only gets power when the igntion switch is on which powers the coil to the relay.. gonna tackel this on the weekend.

Hey check this out broe. Something like that happened to me and I checked all fuses and they were fine. If you did that already then it must not be that right. So then I thought it was my lighter and I needed to buy a new one... Well I took out the little box where you can put your coin chance or whatever and the lighter was just unhooked....

I don't know how it happened....but you should check it out just in case and if it's that it might save you time thinking is something alse.

Let me know what happend with this.

Fixed: It was the positive wire, I had to re-solder it. What a bitch to get at.
