1. cigarette lighter will not work

4. dome light does not come on when doors open but does when manually turned on
1. Check fuse 18 under the dash again, as well as for a broken wire or disconnected connector behind the socket.

2. Wiper switch or motor.

3. Check whether the brake fluid is low. Also possible problem with the Multiplex Control Unit.

4. Possible problem with the Multiplex Control Unit, door switches, or dome light switch.
