Okay, my cigarette lighter is not working. My 12v accesory port righ by it is working. There is no burned fuses, but they should be on the same fuse anyway. I removed the panel and checked the plug going to it and there is no voltage there. Any ideas? They both have orange and black wires going to them and I tried to trace the wires back to see where they went, but I dont not want to tear apart the console and dash to fix it, I may just splice a jumper between the 2. I am not sure when it stopped working or if I ever even tried it before. It is an 04 silverado.

If there isnt any voltage comming from the orange wire than eitherr there is a blown fuse some where (did you check under the hood? there are like three acc. fuses) or something is disconected/cut (check under dash)

I wouldnt suggest splicing the wires, if you ever need both outlets you might have a problem with the fuse holding up

Thanks.
I found out on the truck board that the 12v accesory is seperate from the cigarette lighter, so I have to check that fuse.
