Which Fuse for center colsole power?

Hi,

Where is the fuse for the power outlet in the armrest? The only fuse I can find is a 20amp fuse, but it's not for the center console and it is good. That is the fuse for the 2 USB ports and they work. My 12v cigarette lighter port stopped working. Any ideas?

There should be a fuse panel on the left of the steering wheel. Take the cover off and the fuses are there but they are unfortunately deep in there. Read the back of the panel and see if any one of those fuses are marked for the power outlet. If its not clear, use a fuse test light and check every fuse. You do not need to take out the fuses to check them. There are two pins on each fuse. Ground the test light to a bolt near the driver door and test away. Make sure the ignition is set to on. When you touch both pins on a fuse, the light should light up. If one side of the fuse does not light, its a bad fuse. If neither side lights, that just means that power isn't currently running towards that specific fuse.

If you do not find the issue there, there are a set of fuses under the hood behind the air filter box. The IDM. Take the top off but be careful as there are wires running inside. Take the test light and ground it somewhere in the hood. Best place is the negative terminal of the battery. Then start testing. Hope you find the issue!
