Is this two months from being first used or just two months in your
ownership, if the former you should be contacting your nearest dealer!

I assume that you have established that there is in fact no volts at
the lighter housing/chassis terminals - plus at the centre contact
(IIRC) that can be seen when the removable part is pulled out - as
it's not un-common for fag lighters to fail due to heat damage or
deposits on internal contacts.
Failing that, it will be a case of tracing the wiring back to a point
were a the supply voltage is present. Probably a job for an
auto-electrician.
