I was using a 12v air pump plugged into the aux power outlet. It quit.
I checked the fuse under the hood and it's good. There is 12v there also.
There is not 12v at the aux outlet. Is there another fuse?
Thanks

should be the cigar fuse . use volt meter to check for voltage loss across the fuse. should have 12 volts on it at all times.

The actual cigarette lighter works, just not the aux outlets to the left or right of it.http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p271/djkurious815/FORUMS/Truck.jpg

most times you can get away with using your eyes to find bad fuses. sometimes not. check again the fuses with a meter . the aux fuse should be the correct one. if this fuse is good [20A] then the wire harness may have an open/bad connection. this could be at the fuse box location or even the fuse socket. make sure the fuse is held by the socket securely. many stress out these sockets by flexing the fuse to remove.
