Default Cigarette Lighter does not work

How do I get to the cigaratte lighter electircal connection. I has never worked, the fuse is good, but it either needs replacement or maybe, the connector fell offl. But, anyway, I was told that I cold pry the plastic plates on the center console, and find some screws to remove. But, I don't know which plastic plates to pry off, and I don't want to break the wrong part.

he has a '93, atleast that is what he posted in his profile. Okay, the wood near the gear selector pops right off with a screwdriver or something flat. Then the middle storage area has screws beneath the cloth that you can unbolt. I took my whole middle console off because it 1: it was dirty and that stuff in there smelt 2: I dropped my screws at the bottom which was a pain. You will see two screws at the bottom of the ashtray and there are two at the top which are hidden. And then the whole ashtray/cupholder comes out as a unit. Here you can look at what to kind've expect. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=203634

My cig lighter doesn't work neither and yet to figure it out neither, I am not a smoker so wasn't worried about it to much.

That is correct. It is a 93. Thanks for the info, I am hoping it is a disconected line. I am not a smoker either, but would like to have it for my power cord for my cell. Thanks abunch. Jerry

Cool

Also, if it's not a fuse, someone probably plugged something into the cig lighter & melted the wiring.

Default My Cig, Clock and Side Mirrors dont work

My cig wires are fried, and I was told if I replace the Cig, then all units will work again. But I havent gotton around to fixing the cig lighter.
Does your Clock and Power mirrors work, or are they out too?
