Sounds like someone replaced the lighter with some kind of modification.
Get on the street and push it- maybe its Nitrous
Time to get under the dash and start tracking it down. Good Luck

Sorry, I knew a guy that could not understand there was a sliver button in a black rubber surrounding that was actually a cigar lighter.
