987...problem with Aux power outlets - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

Both power outlets (passenger wheel well and inside the center console) are dead. I checked the fuses and non of the fuses are blown (According to the fuse map, I'm not sure there even is a fuse for them). Any ideas on what this could be?...I live 3 hours from the nearest stealership....As always, thanks in advance.

Rail26, try changing the fuse anyway.

Yeah, a lot of times a fuse will be blown even though it doesn't look like it. Switch out the fuse for that circuit and see what happens, I can't imagine it being anything but that.

Uh, yeah, that worked. Sorry for the brain fart...sometimes I surprise myself...maybe I shouldn't be flying planes anymore. I have always wanted to go to dumptruck school.

A dump truck wouldn't be nearly as interesting!

But, of course now you have to ask yourself "why did the fuse blow?"

Is (or was) it true that piolets were getting drunk a lot? I just know that all the tv shows make fun of them drinking and I didnt know why.
