    Hey guys, gotta small issue with my recently purchased Taco. My 2003 Taco has on primary cig lighter outlet and two directly under that one but with black covers that keep em covered up. Neither of those two seem to be powered currently. Is this a fuse issue or something more sinister that is wrong with the truck? If it's a fuse issue, does anybody know which fuse corresponds to the other two outlets.
    Thanks

    Take a look at the fuse. I think it is a 15 amp fuse and the fuse box cover should label what fuse is what. When I bought my 04 a year ago the fuse was bad. I thought the cigarette outlet was in the same circuit but I could be wrong. Does that work?

    Yep, the key is turned on. The main port works flawlessly, but the other two do not. I would have figured that they ran off the same fuse, but that could be my own silly thinking backed by no science whatsoever.

    The first responder has pointed out the likely culprit, the 'Power Outlet' fuse. If your cig lighter works (has its own fuse in my 1999 Taco), then its either that fuse, or the 'Power Outlet' relay (also in the under-hood fuse box).
