Check the fuses in the car and under the hood.

What are you using the lighter socket for? If for a lighter, the lighter element is likely shorted. If you added it to an existing circuit, that circuit might not be designed for that much current. If you're using it for power, such as for a cell phone charger, the plug can short the socket due to the safety items built into the socket. It all depends on the orientation of the plug when you push it in.

If you're just using the socket for a power outlet, replace it with another power outlet, not a lighter socket.
