Hi,
Just had the same problem after I worked on the new head unit that was installed. The lighter by the ash tray wasn't working but the one inside the center glove box was. I thought I replaced the clip on plug on the back of the lighter but apparently not good enough. Like Mickey 7106 says that would be my first attack if you checked the fuse and it is good. If not it is time to trace the wire for a lose connection or open, lets hope it is just the connector. It is a pain to take the center console out but when you do it enough it gets to be easier and easier.
