Default Cigarette Lighter not working?? Help please

I was wondering why my cigarette lighter doesnt work. it hasn't worked for a while and I dont think it worked when i got the car. I need it for my radar detector. Does anyone have any ideas what could be wrong with it? Thanks

exactly!! check fuses first right under the steering column to the left under the dash. pull the cover, find out which fuse it is and check it. if its good then just pop out the lighter and make sure the wires are connected.

You should just hardwire the radar and hide the wires.
