Default Phone charger cigarette lighter repair

I checked the fuses, I changed the inlet. But still not working. I'm sure the new inlet I installed works because I tried it on an external 12 volt source. On my Camaro and Chevy express van. They both have two inlets one works the other doesn't. This happened from using those cheap charge plugs purchased from the gas station that heat up. Thanks if anyone can help.

I don't understand what an inlet is, but your car has to different ports. One is a cigar lighter and the other is an accessory port. Not all chargers will work in both. Often the cheap ones will only work in the shorter cigar lighter socket.
