Cig. lighters not working?

Hey guys, so I took a trip to California over the weekend and brought a GPS along but was unable to use it because neither of the two cigarette lighters work on my center console. I finally remembered the one hidden on the passengers side on the way home and that one worked, why would only one out of the three work? I checked fuses and connections...

In the fuse box on the drivers side. You can get 5 for a buck most anywhere.

Mine is out too also the one inside arm rest. The only one that is working is the one passenger side panel. I'm just too lazy.

Daylight finally came I checked the fuses and there all good I belive there were three fuses one said front power outlet the second said rear power outlet and third said cig lighter which is wierd because I don't have one. Well next thing I checked is the outlet its self I went for the one on the passenger side which was pretty easy to get to for it to be visible the connections seem fine. Any Ideas anyone? thanx

I actually checked all three fuses as well as the plug under the cig. lighter and one fuse was bad. Once I replaced it, all three worked, not sure if they are in series or something but all I know is they work now, so I'm happy
