idk but cig lighters should pop back up when it gets hot enough, then you just pull it out. i'm not sure how long it takes to heat up though. maybe try pulling it out after 30 seconds or so? good luck

Probably a blown fuse. If the cig lighter isn't getting power it isn't going to heat up and pop out.

If it is getting power and it's stuck in there, then I assume that would (hopefully) cause the fuse to blow.... otherwise I'm sure you would have noticed the smoke by now

more than likely the fuse is popped for this.. Check under the hood on the drivers side towards the firewall.. In the fuse box there is a blue 15amp fuse in position number 52 if i remember correctly. Unless something is physically stuck or causing it to stick, this will activate the lighter and cause it to pop out again.
