Default Car Cigar Lighter is not working

Hi,

Does anyone know what can cause my car lighter to not work. I am curious if I have to replace the whole component.

Does it push in a hold? If not, there are little tabs that you can tweak inside the socket

Have a meter? You can check for 12v in the socket. If there, its prolly the lighter itself (the coil witht he handle). If not, check the fuse.
