THe fuse is blown, it is a common problem with the LS. Just replace it and you will be good to go!

Yes, this happened to me recently. Also, the way the fuse layout is marked is backwards, I think. So if the fuse you pull looks good, try the other one since it seems like they are labeled backwards (could just be me).

You are correct, the fuse for the lighter is on the passager side.

No. The fuse for the lighter is on the passager side inside the car, there is a little door on the side with a **** sticking out (where your right leg would be).
