Default Cigarette lighter stopped working and radio went out

So i got a flat and I used my craftsman tire pump using the cigarette lighter worked fine and then it just stopped working, a couple mins later on the way home i went to turn on the stock factory radio and realized it stopped working but the little anti theft light was blinking. Got under my dash pulled the 15a fuse for the radio and it seemed fine but just to double check i took out a 15 fuse for the washer motor and put it to the radio and still nothing and the red anti theft stopped blinking. Anyone have this problem or know how to resolve this?

You blew fuse #9 (10 amp fuse) under the dash. It powers the Aux power outlet and also is the ignition switched input for the radio.

I'll check it out tomorrow, thanks. My interior lights use to work when the doors open and now only work when i press the buttons to turn them on.

So each bulb works from the buttons, but what about the switch on the dome light assembly. Be sure it is not off, instead of in the middle set to "door". Do they light up when you push the switch all the way right to "on". What about when you unlock the car with your key fob?

Nope, i moved the switch to doors open or just On and nothing. But when I push each button each bulb turns on.

Common Issue. You just need to clean the contacts inside the dome light. Following is a write up with pictures, just scroll to post #8 https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/740...g-lights-work/

There is also a sticky in the DIY but that write up didn't have pictures so i posted the above write up instead. Should fix it.

I had a similar problem. I found out that it was the AC adapter which was loose. As soon as I got that fixed, the radio started working too.
