    So I have been setting up some lights in the topper, and went to plug things in, and found that I don't have any power in the 12v connector or the USB-C ports in the bed on the compressor panel. The Compressor works fine. I have tried both with 120v inverter on, and off, as there has been some rumor these ports might be tied to the 120V inverter. The connector is plugged in behind the wheel well panel. Any ideas? There doesn't seem to be anything in the manual, and I haven't seen any options in the vehicle setup menus.

    1) There has to be enough system voltage. To be sure, turn the engine on.

    2) There is a setting in the compressor software to change the power ports to auto/manual. Try toggling between the two.

    3) There is a 7.5 amp fuse for the power ports right next to the compressor display. It has a rubber cover that a screwdriver or long fingernails can move downwards. Check to see if it is blown.

    Edit: *2) Press [Power] [Menu] . Toggle down to "Settings" . Power ports

    The fuse was it. Blown from the factory, apparently. I upped it to a spare 10 amp that was in the front end fuse box. I'm not sure what exactly the functional difference between the auto/manual is. It doesn't seem to do anything different, but there may be nuances.
