If a Ford Expedition loses operation of a cigarette lighter, there is a loss of power. Check the fuses and wiring to the lighter to find the problem.
The radio and the cigarette lighter are on the same fuse, I would check the fuse first.
Cigarette lighter not work?I read in my car owner manual, and it tells me that the reason why a cigarette lighter will stop working is because the heating mechanism is burned out. I'm not sure exactly what it is or what is a definite answer for why it would burn out. But one reason was given. It said if you take the lighter out before it pops up, that it would cause the heating mechanism to burn out faster.
A broken cigarette lighter fuse in a Mazda 5 can be a nuisance. A burnt fuse is a common cause for this problem and can be found in slot 43 of the passenger fuse box.
The normal cause is a blown fuse.
a fuse!
Check your fuses in your fuse panel usually that is what is wrong when cigarette lighters and radios quit working.
Low coolant or an inoperative radiator fan.Low coolant or an inoperative radiator fan.
Bad fuse
I would invest in a manual...and check to see if there are any pieces of metal(foil) in the lighter sockets..this can cause them to blow.. dave
Blown fuse or damaged wireThe power wire that attaches to the back of the cigarette lighter is a real weak point for Toyotas. It probably melted or broke off and will require the replacement of the cigarette lighter receptacle.I had this same problem, and found that the cause was a washer in the base of the lighter socket that was not conducting (it is attached by a bolt and a screw). I expect it provides some heat protection. I removed this washer, replaced the bolt, and the socket now works. I'm going to look for a replacement washer or a replacement socket, since I've not gotten any info on what the purpose of this washer is, or what protection (if any) it provides.
