Default Cigerette lighters not working

Both my Cig. Lighters are out. Anyone else have this problem?
Is it a blown fuse?
Thanks

The cig lighter fuse is located in the fuse box on the pass side
on the upright carpeted panel.
Pull the pallel & take the door off the box.
It is # 7 fuse, which requires a # 20 mini fuse. It will be a light yellow in color .
If that isn't the problem, you may want to pull the radio bezel out, along w/ the console to get to a possible loose wire on the cig lighter.
Good luck.
