    I had that problem a couple of times. It seemed as if the fuse for that accessory would blow out all the time. That might be your problem. 92 and 93 Preludes here.

    never had it looked at.
    well when you get a chance, just reach back there where the lighter is, see if you can feel around to see if its plugged it, if you see it is plugged in, take apart that dash and check to see the red and black wire is hooked up to somethin....if all that fails, take it to a professional LOL, but i dont think cig lighters and run off of fuses, all the diagrams i looked at didnt have a fuse for that
