Fuse help needed.

[CubSmurf]

Long story short, I'm pretty sure I tripped the fuse for cigarette lighter ports in the front. (iPhone charging cable dropped in open port, saw small spark, Wonderful)

No other system appear to be impacted, but now neither the cig. lighter port under the stereo or the one in the armrest work.

I checked the Front Power Outlet Relay in the engine compartment, looked fine.

I checked the fuses in both the driver and passenger side, didn't see anything blown. Anyone else had this problem and successfully dealt with it or know exactly which fuse it is?

Thanks!

Oh, FYI. If you're working on the fuses place a piece of paper or cardboard under them so you don't lose a fuse.

I was attempting to diagnose this in the Advance Auto Parts parking lot. I pulled the Ignition Power fuse to check it (since it gets power only when ignition on). Anyway, I dropped the fuse and it fell into the ether, never to return. Had to go inside and get a new fuse because it was the actual ignition fuse. Car wouldn't start. Oops

So, i found this website which has the fuse box locations and diagrams:

Replaced both fuses that accompany the front power, only left is the relay in the engine bay. Wouldn't seem like the relay would die before the fuses...doesn't seem right but I dont see any other references...

Is the relay pricey? If not, worth a shot to replace it.

Nah. Found it for like $7 on Amazon. Gonna get it and see. If it doesn’t fix it, I’m officially stumped.
