Just to confirm, Fuse #29, 20amp in the cab fuse box located in passenger side kick panel, powers both the Cigar Lighter and the OBD port

All fuses are good
Is there a way to test the cigarette lighter socket wire with a test light

This is the third thread you've started for the same problem. And none of them are in the correct section.

Could be a bomb?

So Anthony... I moved your thread to electrical. You've had a couple threads going and we can better help you if you focus on one thread. Also... be complete with the symptoms you're having. Did you do recent repairs and then you started having problems? Did you sink it in a swamp? Did this problem show up out of nowhere. Lots of people are willing to help you...

Lets start you electrical issues over again. Right here...

Yes. Attach the ground wire of your test light to the metal outer shell of the lighter socket and touch the probe to the center contact in the socket. If there is enough voltage, the test light should light up.
