Yes. It's not as bad as it sounds. Just make sure that it's the lighter and not the fuse! I looked at the fuse in mine and it looked ok, so I bought another lighter. Took about 20 minutes to get the dash and console apart. replaced the lighter and put it all back together and it still didn't woirk. Checked the fuse with a DVM and it was blown.
