Probably loose connector or one that came completely off. It has both a ground and power connector. Other than that, maybe a bad wire. Are you sure it's not the lighter itself -- sometimes they go bad. I'd plug something in before taking off the fairing to find out if you have power or not.

That's a sure fire way to blow the fuse.

I had the same problem after some work was done to my ultra; the ground and positive wire were reversed. Check your wiring could be there.
