    I have 2018 Tacoma V6. The power outlet, the main one that is located under the AC control isn't working all of a sudden. I checked the fuses under the steering wheel, they all apparently are good. I looked under the hood and fusebox and didn't see any fuses that looked like lead to the power adapter. Any suggestions?

    Thanks

    One of the wires is probably unplugged from the socket

    I would dig around and see if there's a relay that controls it, probably in the box under the hood. If the relay fails then the socket stops working. This is how 1st gens are anyway.

    Will look again but I didn't see labels like that but I could have missed it.
