Electrical problem
2006 Volkswagen Rabbit 4 cyl Automatic 54700 miles

My cigarette lighter/charger thing will no longer work. I discovered that both are not working, one in front console and one in the trunk. They are both linked to the same fuse. The fuse is still good and I even replaced it with a new one and they still won't work. What could be the problem and is it going to be expensive to fix?

have you checked the fuse with a test light to make sure you have power? if you do you will need a multi-meter to check the ground, check the cigarette lighter and make sure it is grounded
