I had this problem with my truck, cigarette lighter didnt work and need it for my solar charger. No warranty. I dont know if you've ever spent much time under a dashboard where the wires are, but it's not my favorite thing to do. After a little bit of tryingto trace circuits and wires that do not match color code in schematic etc. I just re-engineered it.
Problem, get power to outlet. Solution, install new wiring straight from battery through firewall to cigarrrete lighter using crimp-on connectors. You MUSt use a fuse inline of course, and the fuse box cover or owners manual fuse diagram tells you what amperage to use.
