The other week I held the lighter in a little to long. Now it doesn't work anymore. How would I go about fixing it. I changed some of the fuses but didn't seem to do the job. I not to sure what fuse I should of changed. The truck has 3 lighters spots and the other 2 work. Just not the one for the lighter. I was looking around online and it the fuse should be the same one as the radio. But the radio works. But it is a radio I had put in after I got the truck.

BORROW AND TRY YOUR BUDDY'S LIGHTER TO INSURE THE LIGHTER ITSELF IS NOT THE PROBLEM

CHECK THE REST OF YOUR FUSES....SUSPECT ONES, PULL 'EM OUT AND REINSERT THEM....SOMETIMES THE FUSE LEG MAY HAVE A BURNT SPOT ON IT, NOT ALLOWING GOOD CONTACT
