I agree with stangklr, I had that happen on time and while changing the lighter housing I found the problem, someone had dropped a penny down there and it was shorting out the system.

My cousins Taurus did this. Someone had dropped a foil gum wrapper in the ashtray and over time it got behind the ashtray and over by the lighter. Shorted out and shocked the crap out of me when I was doing a radio install.
