Cigarette lighter madness!

I replaced the console on my '94 Cutlass Supreme (where the lighter goes). I guess the previous owner was a heavy smoker and melted the rim around the ash tray!!!!

 

It looks really nice, but now my lighter doesn't work. When I press the lighter in, a light turns on instead of the lighter heating up. Its the courtesy light that is at the back of the middle console. The one between the seats.

 

Now, if one of the doors is open the light will not come on if I press in the lighter but the lighter will not heat up either.

 

I've checked the wiring which is stock. I did not alter any electrical parts. I just swapped.

 

Anybody know what the hell is going on??

 

It driving me nuts!

 

Thanks,

did you check the fusebox?

 

the same circuit, at least for my 90 cutlass, contained power locks, lower mirrors, interior locks, underhood lights, trunk lights, cig lighter, mirror lights, glovebox light....

 

i would start there i guess
