power outlets not working

[erdad]

The power outlets in the front & back of my 2000 T&C aren't working. Does anyone know if this is a fuse, or if I'll need to have a pro check my electrical. All other items seem to work fine.

Thanks!

Check fuse #8 in the Power Distribution Center under the hood. If it is good, then check the Cigar Lighter/Accessory Relay in the PDC also. I suspect the fuse is blown because of something shorted that was plugged into one of the power outlets.

Thanks for your advice. I will definitely check them out. Your suspicions are right about them going out after something was plugged. I'll let you know if I find the problem!

You might have a pinched wire where the cubby mounts under the dash.

Many thanks, it was indeed fuse #8. I had no idea there was a PDC under the hood! Everyone is happy now!
