I have a 2001 Saturn SL1 - cigarette lighter stopped working. Fuse good. Lighter itself tested good. No power coming thru fuseblock. Took out fuse in fuse block, tested. Confirmed. No Power. What to do?

Do you have power on the lighter fuse both side of it-if so the orange wire is open from the fuse holder to the lighter socket

If there's no power at the lighter fuse -check the I/P battery fuse 30amp it powers the lighter fuse-

You said the I/P fuse is okay-did you check for power on it-both side of the fuse if you have it-the wire between the 2 fuses is open-
