Cigarette Lighter Fuse Keeps Shorting Out 850 1994

When I bought my car, the socket was blowing fuses as soon as I turned the ignition to on. After 3 fuses (I'm slow) I thought to look at the lighter socket. There was a small safety pin crammed in the bottom causing the socket to short out (and blow fuses). Used some tweezers to pull it out and no problem since. Might be worth a quick inspection.
