Default '92 Accord- Lighter fuse blown???

I assumed my lighter fuse blew when I was trying to charge my cellphone. At the same time the antenna motor stopped working. I assumed it's probably on the same circuit but when I checked the Radio Antenna Motor fuse (under dash) it was OK. There is no fuse labeled for the lighter in either the under-dash or under-hood fuse panel! What gives??? Now I also discovered the rear window defroster isn't working either. I don't know if they all have the same circuit in common, but I started pulling every fuse one-by-one............ no bad fuses! Any ideas?

Thanks

Tried that. That fuse is good and the radio has still been working. I've literally pulled every fuse to check each one and I can't find a bad fuse in either of the locations! What am I missing?????????
This shouldn't be rocket science.... just a bad fuse...... somewhere?

I FOUND IT!!!

It wasn't visable as a bad fuse... I had to ohm it out to verify it was bad. Anyway, it was in the under-hood fuse panel. A 15 Amp fuse but, go figure, it was labeled "small light" ? My Lighter, Antenna Motor, and Rear Defroster is classified as a "small light" ???
Wow.... someone at Honda sure blew it in the translation dept.!
