I'm worthless with electrical stuff.
I was just stating the obvious.

Fuse maybe?

All electrical dianostics start there. You can even look to see what all is connected by just the fuse description. Next I'd look at the dimmer switch. Don't have my Wire Diagrams in front of me but these are good places to start.

now that I read what I typed your dimmer would have nothing to do with your lighter.

Did they all go out at once?

I need to replace my bulbs as they went out one by one. I loosened the middle section between the seats(WTF's that called again?) and will remove the entire dashboard, first upper steering part....and paint them. I'm expecting to be able to replace all bulbs/grease em and slap the bits back together and have them work. I can't remember if I'm removing the ABS lights or not.

Check the 20AMP main fuse, which is on the very bottom, right...
