No power to accessory point next to shifter

seafarer28 · May 8, 2014

Hi all,

lost power to the accessory plug located next to the shifter, checked fuse #1 on LHS fuse box which I believe supplies to power to that outlet, fuse is good.
Any ideas what to check next other than take the outlet out?

Mine did the same thing. I can't find a blown fuse anywhere. My wife would really like it if I'd fix it.

Sadly, that one runs the GPS and charges her phone. Right now I use the rear console 12VDC outlet for the power for my amateur radio. I'm going to direct wire that this weekend though.

Took it to dealer, tells me it was a fuse.....WTF, I must have checked the wrong fuse position!

Yes, they seem to be grouped and all seem to have their own fuse for whatever reason. I went through this on my 04 once when I realized most of them did not work after I bought it.

Mine is broken too, which fuse is it?

IIRC, the fuse is in the passenger side fuse box and not the driver. I think that was what OP meant by LHS?

Not so, convention dictates which side is what is determined as when viewed from the rear.
So driving position for North American vehicles is on the LHS, see post here from another Aussie tregger, Dubby, which shows fuse positions clearly:

Note: be aware that it seems for accessories fuse location the fuse box has changed to the RHS on 2011 and later models (fuse location is also different).

Ah, my mistake as the mobile app doesn't show the location and I ASSumed incorrectly it was a fellow yank. Carry on. ☺

Had to go check when I arrived home and I did not recall correctly. Fuse positions are 1,3 and 5 on the left hand side. Samsonite... I was way off.
