Anyone happen to have already figured out which fuse controls the center console 12 volt outlet? I've got no power to mine, and am trying to avoid a trip to the dealer. The fuse card is indecipherable!

IIRC it was the one in the engine compartment.. could be wrong.

Thanks - I saw this. The fuse situation is a mess. There is also a TSB for the center console 12v outlet. Problems with it making a connection. Called the dealer and my SA advised that the front and rear 12v are on the same fuse, and my rear 12v works so it may be the outlet having the issue as identified in the TSB. The fix is supposed to be replacing a screw in the bottom of the outlet. Waiting on confirmation from the service department supervisor. They may just mail me a screw and try that before scheduling an appointment.

As a followup, dealer replaced the front 12V outlet under warranty purusant to the TSB and it fixed the problem.
