lighter socket

good afternoon all, could someone tell me where the lighter socket is powered from on a 75 tr6. I have looked at the wiring diagram and can not find it. It looks like it shoots over to the passenger side dash then goes up from there. Right now I have no power to it and all 3 fuses on the front left inner fender fuse block are good. Thanks for any info and Happy 4th....

The reason you can not find it in the schematics is that the factory never put a cigarette lighter in the TR6. Yours just like everyone else's was added at some point by a PO. You will physically have to trace the wire from the socket to where ever it was connected. For mine I installed an in line fuse and connected it right to the battery so it is always live.
