cigarette lighter socket not working.
hello, my question is what else can be done to check where the break is or whats wrong with it. i dont even smoke but i like everything in my car to work. i already changed the fuse under the dash and looked for broken wires. im not sure what else to do. any ideas?

Does it work with a cell phone charger or anything like that, or does it not get any power whatsoever? The cigarette lighter (the part that actually gets hot) mine came with was defective.

A socket COULD go bad, possibly...but it's kind of rare for that to happen unless it was like...really physically broken apart. What you can try is get a +12v source and attach it to the 12v on your cig. lighter, then find a new ground. Test the socket to see if it works with the +12v source and new ground, that'll rule out the bad socket. From there, test the +12v source and the old ground, then the other way around to see where the problem is coming from.
...Or you could do like Charles said and get a test light. Up to you.
It's a matter of narrowing it all down.
Good luck.
